Description

Question

Thank you for this great effort. I was wondering how can one access the values in a ciphertext. For example in CKKS, each cipher text is a pair of polynomials. Is there a way to print the coefficients of these polynomials?

Research direction

Start by examining how TenSEAL represents CKKS ciphertexts and which public APIs expose their underlying polynomials or coefficients. Determine whether coefficient access is supported and document the result or the scope of a possible API change; the issue does not name a file or test.
