How to disable (or bypass) the string pattern match in whole string(without "%" or "\")

Why I need this? Because I have a random string that I need to gsub smth. in it. So it’s there any method like turning string into number or any form that won’t trigger string pattern match and turn the number into string again after proccessing?

You can use string.find with its plain argument then use string.sub to remove the characters
