Decoding Process: bWF6ZGE= to mazda

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bWF6ZGE=" 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
6	111010	58
Z	011001	25
G	000110	6
E	000100	4
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101101 01100001 01111010 01100100 01100001 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101101	m
01100001	a
01111010	z
01100100	d
01100001	a
00

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