About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "b3V0a2FzdA==" 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
V	010101	21
0	110100	52
a	011010	26
2	110110	54
F	000101	5
z	110011	51
d	011101	29
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):

01101111 01110101 01110100 01101011 01100001 01110011 01110100 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101111	o
01110101	u
01110100	t
01101011	k
01100001	a
01110011	s
01110100	t
0000

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