About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "ZW5kYW5nZXJlZA==" 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
W	010110	22
5	111001	57
k	100100	36
Y	011000	24
W	010110	22
5	111001	57
n	100111	39
Z	011001	25
X	010111	23
J	001001	9
l	100101	37
Z	011001	25
A	000000	0
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01100101 01101110 01100100 01100001 01101110 01100111 01100101 01110010 01100101 01100100 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01100101	e
01101110	n
01100100	d
01100001	a
01101110	n
01100111	g
01100101	e
01110010	r
01100101	e
01100100	d
0000

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