Decoding Process: Yml6am91cm5hbHM= to bizjournals

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "Yml6am91cm5hbHM=" 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
l	100101	37
6	111010	58
a	011010	26
m	100110	38
9	111101	61
1	110101	53
c	011100	28
m	100110	38
5	111001	57
h	100001	33
b	011011	27
H	000111	7
M	001100	12
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100010 01101001 01111010 01101010 01101111 01110101 01110010 01101110 01100001 01101100 01110011 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100010	b
01101001	i
01111010	z
01101010	j
01101111	o
01110101	u
01110010	r
01101110	n
01100001	a
01101100	l
01110011	s
00

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