Decoding Process: YnVyZ3VuZHk= to burgundy

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "YnVyZ3VuZHk=" 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
n	100111	39
V	010101	21
y	110010	50
Z	011001	25
3	110111	55
V	010101	21
u	101110	46
Z	011001	25
H	000111	7
k	100100	36
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100010 01110101 01110010 01100111 01110101 01101110 01100100 01111001 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100010	b
01110101	u
01110010	r
01100111	g
01110101	u
01101110	n
01100100	d
01111001	y
00

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