Hello, I am wondering why the integers are encoded as zig zags. It would seem much more intuitive to me to just truncate the number from the left. That is, store -1 as 01111111, -2 as 01111110, 1 as 00000001, 2 as 00000010 and so on.
I am not proposing to change it. I am just curious about the design. Regards, David Srbecky -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
