Decoding Process: bmljb3RpbmU= to nicotine

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "bmljb3RpbmU=" 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
m	100110	38
l	100101	37
j	100011	35
b	011011	27
3	110111	55
R	010001	17
p	101001	41
b	011011	27
m	100110	38
U	010100	20
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01101110 01101001 01100011 01101111 01110100 01101001 01101110 01100101 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01101110	n
01101001	i
01100011	c
01101111	o
01110100	t
01101001	i
01101110	n
01100101	e
00

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