Decoding Process: Z2Vub2NpZGU= to genocide

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "Z2Vub2NpZGU=" 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
V	010101	21
u	101110	46
b	011011	27
2	110110	54
N	001101	13
p	101001	41
Z	011001	25
G	000110	6
U	010100	20
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100111 01100101 01101110 01101111 01100011 01101001 01100100 01100101 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100111	g
01100101	e
01101110	n
01101111	o
01100011	c
01101001	i
01100100	d
01100101	e
00

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