Decoding Process: c2V2ZXJlbHk= to severely

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "c2V2ZXJlbHk=" 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
V	010101	21
2	110110	54
Z	011001	25
X	010111	23
J	001001	9
l	100101	37
b	011011	27
H	000111	7
k	100100	36
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110011 01100101 01110110 01100101 01110010 01100101 01101100 01111001 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110011	s
01100101	e
01110110	v
01100101	e
01110010	r
01100101	e
01101100	l
01111001	y
00

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