+id: tezos-specific
+title: Tezos Domain-Specific Operations
+---
+
+LIGO is a language for writing Tezos smart contracts. It would be a little odd if
+it didn't have any Tezos specific functions. This page will tell you about them.
+
+## Pack and Unpack
+
+Michelson provides the `PACK` and `UNPACK` instructions for data serialization.
+`PACK` converts Michelson data structures to a binary format, and `UNPACK`
+reverses it. This functionality can be accessed from within LIGO.
+
+> ⚠️ `PACK` and `UNPACK` are features of Michelson that are intended to be used by people that really know what they're doing. There are several failure cases (such as `UNPACK`ing a lambda from an untrusted source), most of which are beyond the scope of this document. Don't use these functions without doing your homework first.
+

+<!--PascaLIGO-->
+```pascaligo
+function id_string (const p : string) : option(string) is block {
+  const packed : bytes = bytes_pack(p) ;
+} with (bytes_unpack(packed): option(string))
+```
+
+<!--CameLIGO-->
+```cameligo
+let id_string (p: string) : string option =
+  let packed: bytes = Bytes.pack p in
+  ((Bytes.unpack packed): string option)
+```
+

+```reasonligo
+let id_string = (p: string) : option(string) => {
+  let packed : bytes = Bytes.pack(p);
+  ((Bytes.unpack(packed)): option(string));
+};
+```
+
+<!--END_DOCUSAURUS_CODE_TABS-->
+
+## Hashing Keys
+
+It's often desirable to hash a public key. In Michelson, certain data structures
+such as maps will not allow the use of the `key` type. Even if this weren't the case
+hashes are much smaller than keys, and storage on blockchains comes at a cost premium.
+You can hash keys with the `key_hash` type and associated built in function.
+
+<!--DOCUSAURUS_CODE_TABS-->
+
+<!--PascaLIGO-->
+```pascaligo
+function check_hash_key (const kh1 : key_hash; const k2 : key) : bool * key_hash is block {
+  var ret : bool := False ;
+  var kh2 : key_hash := crypto_hash_key(k2) ;
+  if kh1 = kh2 then ret := True else skip; 
+} with (ret, kh2)
+```
+
+<!--CameLIGO-->
+```cameligo
+let check_hash_key (kh1, k2: key_hash * key) : bool * key_hash =
+  let kh2 : key_hash = Crypto.hash_key k2 in
+  if kh1 = kh2
+  then (true, kh2)
+  else (false, kh2)
+```
+
+<!--ReasonLIGO-->
+```reasonligo
+let check_hash_key = (kh1_k2: (key_hash, key)) : (bool, key_hash) => {
+  let kh1, k2 = kh1_k2;
+  let kh2 : key_hash = Crypto.hash_key(k2);
+  if (kh1 == kh2) {
+    (true, kh2);
+  }
+  else {
+    (false, kh2);
+  }
+};
+```

+<!--END_DOCUSAURUS_CODE_TABS-->
+
+## Checking Signatures
+
+Sometimes a contract will want to check that a message has been signed by a
+particular key. For example, a point-of-sale system might want a customer to
+sign a transaction so it can be processed asynchronously. You can do this in LIGO
+using the `key` and `signature` types.
+
+> ⚠️ There is no way to *generate* a signed message in LIGO. This is because that would require storing a private key on chain, at which point it isn't very private anymore.
+
+<!--DOCUSAURUS_CODE_TABS-->
+
+<!--PascaLIGO-->
+```pascaligo
+function check_signature
+    (const pk: key;
+     const signed: signature;
+     const msg: bytes) : bool
+  is crypto_check(pk, signed, msg)
+```
+
+<!--CameLIGO-->
+```cameligo
+let check_signature (pk, signed, msg: key * signature * bytes) : bool =
+  Crypto.check pk signed msg
+```
+
+<!--ReasonLIGO-->
+```reasonligo
+let check_signature = (param: (key, signature, bytes)) : bool => {
+  let pk, signed, msg = param;
+  Crypto.check(pk, signed, msg);
+};
+```
+
+<!--END_DOCUSAURUS_CODE_TABS-->
+ 
+## Getting The Contract's Own Address
+
+Often you want to get the address of the contract being executed. You can do it with
+`self_address`.
+
+> ⚠️ Due to limitations in Michelson, self_address in a contract is only allowed at the entry-point level. Using it in a utility function will cause an error.
+
+<!--DOCUSAURUS_CODE_TABS-->
+
+<!--PascaLIGO-->
+```pascaligo
+const current_addr : address = self_address;
+```
+
+<!--CameLIGO-->
+```cameligo
+let current_addr : address = Current.self_address
+```
+
+<!--ReasonLIGO-->
+```reasonligo
+let current_addr : address = Current.self_address;
