Decoding Process: c2FjcmFtZW50bw== to sacramento

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "c2FjcmFtZW50bw==" 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
c	011100	28
2	110110	54
F	000101	5
j	100011	35
c	011100	28
m	100110	38
F	000101	5
t	101101	45
Z	011001	25
W	010110	22
5	111001	57
0	110100	52
b	011011	27
w	110000	48
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110011 01100001 01100011 01110010 01100001 01101101 01100101 01101110 01110100 01101111 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110011	s
01100001	a
01100011	c
01110010	r
01100001	a
01101101	m
01100101	e
01101110	n
01110100	t
01101111	o
0000

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