Decoding Process: Ym91cm5lbW91dGg= to bournemouth

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "Ym91cm5lbW91dGg=" 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
m	100110	38
9	111101	61
1	110101	53
c	011100	28
m	100110	38
5	111001	57
l	100101	37
b	011011	27
W	010110	22
9	111101	61
1	110101	53
d	011101	29
G	000110	6
g	100000	32
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100010 01101111 01110101 01110010 01101110 01100101 01101101 01101111 01110101 01110100 01101000 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100010	b
01101111	o
01110101	u
01110010	r
01101110	n
01100101	e
01101101	m
01101111	o
01110101	u
01110100	t
01101000	h
00

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