Decoding Process: b3JpZ2luYWw= to original

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "b3JpZ2luYWw=" 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
b	011011	27
3	110111	55
J	001001	9
p	101001	41
Z	011001	25
2	110110	54
l	100101	37
u	101110	46
Y	011000	24
W	010110	22
w	110000	48
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101111 01110010 01101001 01100111 01101001 01101110 01100001 01101100 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101111	o
01110010	r
01101001	i
01100111	g
01101001	i
01101110	n
01100001	a
01101100	l
00

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