About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "ZGVtb25zdHJhdGU=" 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
V	010101	21
t	101101	45
b	011011	27
2	110110	54
5	111001	57
z	110011	51
d	011101	29
H	000111	7
J	001001	9
h	100001	33
d	011101	29
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):

01100100 01100101 01101101 01101111 01101110 01110011 01110100 01110010 01100001 01110100 01100101 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100100	d
01100101	e
01101101	m
01101111	o
01101110	n
01110011	s
01110100	t
01110010	r
01100001	a
01110100	t
01100101	e
00

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