Ciphertext: Ciphertext class

CiphertextR Documentation

Ciphertext class

Description

Wraps an encrypted OpenFHE ciphertext. Supports arithmetic operators +, -, * which dispatch to homomorphic operations.

Usage

Ciphertext(ptr = NULL)

Arguments

ptr

External pointer (internal use)

Value

An S7 object of class Ciphertext, inheriting from OpenFHEObject, whose ptr property holds an external pointer to the C++ ciphertext. Ciphertexts are produced by encrypt() and by the ⁠eval_*()⁠ family rather than by calling this constructor directly, and they carry the encrypted vector together with the level and scaling-factor bookkeeping the scheme needs.
