Decoding Process: Y2FtcHVzZXM= to campuses

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "Y2FtcHVzZXM=" is padding. Base64 encoding requires the input length to be divisible by 4. When it's not, '=' characters are added as padding. These padding characters are represented as '000000' in binary but are not used in the final decoded output.

Step 1: Map Base64 Characters to Binary

Base64 Character	Binary Value	Decimal Value
Y	011000	24
2	110110	54
F	000101	5
t	101101	45
c	011100	28
H	000111	7
V	010101	21
z	110011	51
Z	011001	25
X	010111	23
M	001100	12
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

The binary string is grouped into 8-bit chunks (1 byte each):

01100011 01100001 01101101 01110000 01110101 01110011 01100101 01110011 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100011	c
01100001	a
01101101	m
01110000	p
01110101	u
01110011	s
01100101	e
01110011	s
00

When combined, these characters form the decoded string: "campuses"
