Decoding Process: c2NvcnBpbw== to scorpio

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "c2NvcnBpbw==" 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
N	001101	13
v	101111	47
c	011100	28
n	100111	39
B	000001	1
p	101001	41
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 01100011 01101111 01110010 01110000 01101001 01101111 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110011	s
01100011	c
01101111	o
01110010	r
01110000	p
01101001	i
01101111	o
0000

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