Installation

Installation involves the following steps:

1. Install OpenFHE-development, following its installation procedure.

2. Install OpenFHE-python, following its installation procedure. We recommend installing at commit 87700c2c250ff39eaaa5cbe4daed3e5cb5d9b726; later installations introduce an obscure bug. Afterwards, make sure to add the installation file to your PYTHONPATH.

export PYTHONPATH=/path/to/OPENFHE_so_files:$PYTHONPATH

3. (recommended) Setup a virtual environment.

python3 -m venv .env
