Decoding Process: bWFuaXRvYmE= to manitoba

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bWFuaXRvYmE=" 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
u	101110	46
a	011010	26
X	010111	23
R	010001	17
v	101111	47
Y	011000	24
m	100110	38
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 01101110 01101001 01110100 01101111 01100010 01100001 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101101	m
01100001	a
01101110	n
01101001	i
01110100	t
01101111	o
01100010	b
01100001	a
00

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