## Detailed Description

Virtual class for array of slots, not encrypted.

An object pa of type PlaintextArray stores information about an EncryptedArray object ea. The object pa stores a vector of plaintext slots, where each slot is an element of the polynomial ring (Z/(p^r)[X])/(G), where p, r, and G are as defined in ea. Support for arithemetic on PlaintextArray objects is provided.

Mirroring PAlgebraMod and EncryptedArray, we have the following class heirarchy:

PlaintextArrayBase is a virtual class

PlaintextArrayDerived<type> is a derived template class, where type is either PA_GF2 or PA_zz_p.

The class PlaintextArray is a simple wrapper around a smart pointer to a PlaintextArray object: copying a PlaintextArray object results is a "deep copy" of the underlying object of the derived class.

The documentation for this class was generated from the following file:
