Hi 

Do you mean Mac OS 

My Computer is Mac OS high seriea and  yes I download it 

[Marcos Portnoi]

Yes you download it, but did you install Charm and had it work flawlessly on Mac OS, that is what Munachiso probably wants to know. :)

[foza abdullah]

how I use it I do not know how to use it

[foza abdullah]

can you tell me how I use it ?

[Marcos Portnoi]

First of all, for what exactly do you want to use Charm Crypto?

[foza abdullah]

I want to implement score and private data aggregation scheme.

I install it but I do not know how to start using it

[Marcos Portnoi]

Your question and topic are somewhat broad, and there is not easy answer for that.

Charm is a library, not an application. Therefore you must write your own code that will utilize Charm for whatever cryptographic functions you want (available in Charm). I believe, first, you have to define your system and what cryptographic functions you will need. From there, we might be able to assist in using Charm APIs to invoke the cryptographic functions.

Update - 

Got it working after

- I figured out how to use homebrew to install the dependencies, 

- fixed the openssl issue with latest mac os systems based on i formation I found online and 

- then followed the main steps on the charm-crypto webpage. 

Using it for it abe schemes implementations and to also implement mine. 

So far so good.

Do you already have your scheme designed? Charm will be the last step when you are implementing the proof of concept of your scheme. If you have your scheme and a diagram of the places wherein the cryptographic functions reside, then we can start seeing what Charm can do to offer with its libraries.

I have a project in Github, which is the proof-of-concept I built for my PhD dissertation. Take a look.

I will be glad to assist.

Is there anything you cannot disclose over the forum? Because if we can
solve your installation issue, our discussion serves as help to other
people who may come to it in the future. Keeping it private will prevent
that from happening.
