Decoding Process: ZG9jdG9ycw== to doctors

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "ZG9jdG9ycw==" 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
G	000110	6
9	111101	61
j	100011	35
d	011101	29
G	000110	6
9	111101	61
y	110010	50
c	011100	28
w	110000	48
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100100 01101111 01100011 01110100 01101111 01110010 01110011 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100100	d
01101111	o
01100011	c
01110100	t
01101111	o
01110010	r
01110011	s
0000

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