Decoding Process: bWF1cml0YW5pYQ== to mauritania

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bWF1cml0YW5pYQ==" 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
W	010110	22
F	000101	5
1	110101	53
c	011100	28
m	100110	38
l	100101	37
0	110100	52
Y	011000	24
W	010110	22
5	111001	57
p	101001	41
Y	011000	24
Q	010000	16
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101101 01100001 01110101 01110010 01101001 01110100 01100001 01101110 01101001 01100001 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101101	m
01100001	a
01110101	u
01110010	r
01101001	i
01110100	t
01100001	a
01101110	n
01101001	i
01100001	a
0000

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