Spaghetti Clam Recipe?!?!?!

Question: I am making a spaghetti clam recipe, and here is one of the ingredients:

1/2 (16 ounce) package uncooked spaghetti

Does this mean i use half of the 16 ounce package, or just 16 ounces of spaghetti altogether? Please help, the water is boiling!

(The recipe is for four servings)
