Decoding Process: bG90dG8= to lotto

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bG90dG8=" 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
G	000110	6
9	111101	61
0	110100	52
d	011101	29
G	000110	6
8	111100	60
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101100 01101111 01110100 01110100 01101111 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101100	l
01101111	o
01110100	t
01110100	t
01101111	o
00

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