About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "b3ZlcnZpZXc=" 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
Z	011001	25
l	100101	37
c	011100	28
n	100111	39
Z	011001	25
p	101001	41
Z	011001	25
X	010111	23
c	011100	28
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101111 01110110 01100101 01110010 01110110 01101001 01100101 01110111 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101111	o
01110110	v
01100101	e
01110010	r
01110110	v
01101001	i
01100101	e
01110111	w
00

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