Auto resize video with ffmpeg based on input video resolution

I wrote a Bash script to convert all video files in a directory. Some videos are 1280 x 720 resolution, and others are 720 x 1280.

How can I write a ffmpeg command that converts 1280 x 720 videos to 640 x 360 and 720 x 1280 videos to 360 x 640?

Basic syntax is

ffmpeg -i in -vf scale=iw/2:-2 out

The scale filter will halve the input width, scale the height proportionally and ensure it is even.
