As far as I can see, the gmp package does not currently support a raw interface to create bigz values. Here is my workaround:

####
plaintext <- "Rossetta Code"
stringtoasciihex <- function( s ) {
  vs <- strsplit( s, "", fixed = TRUE )[[ 1 ]]
  asc <- sapply( vs, function( C ) as.character( charToRaw( C ) ) )
  paste( c( "0x", asc ), collapse="" )
}
gmp::as.bigz( stringtoasciihex( plaintext ) )

Hi,
   I am trying to make a R version a RosettaCode task involving big number.
   More precise, I am trying to convert the c-solution
http://rosettacode.org/wiki/RSA_code#C
to R.

  These two lines in C gives me problems:
const char *plaintext = "Rossetta Code";
mpz_import(pt, strlen(plaintext), 1, 1, 0, 0, plaintext);

I have tried:
library(gmp)
plaintext <- "Rossetta Code"
as.bigz(charToRaw(plaintext))

and
library(gmp)
plaintext <- "Rossetta Code
as.big(split(plaintext,""))

Thanks for any help/suggestions
