Alexander Shigin commented on THRIFT-335:
-----------------------------------------

David, I copy-paste zig-zag from c++ patch. I've just checked the protobuf 
documentation. The current version of makeZigZag makes the right result for 
examples in the doc.

What wrong with the current code? Of course, I do prefer the next variant. It's 
much simpler to understand if you ain't god in bit operation.
{code}
def makeZigZag(n):
    if n > 0:
        return 2*n
    else:
        return -2*n + 1
{code}

But it can be confusing to get two different implementation of the same 
algorithm in different languages.
