Decoding Process: Z29yaWxsYXo= to gorillaz

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "Z29yaWxsYXo=" 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
Z	011001	25
2	110110	54
9	111101	61
y	110010	50
a	011010	26
W	010110	22
x	110001	49
s	101100	44
Y	011000	24
X	010111	23
o	101000	40
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100111 01101111 01110010 01101001 01101100 01101100 01100001 01111010 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100111	g
01101111	o
01110010	r
01101001	i
01101100	l
01101100	l
01100001	a
01111010	z
00

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