Decoding Process: c2xpcGtub3Q= to slipknot

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "c2xpcGtub3Q=" 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
x	110001	49
p	101001	41
c	011100	28
G	000110	6
t	101101	45
u	101110	46
b	011011	27
3	110111	55
Q	010000	16
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110011 01101100 01101001 01110000 01101011 01101110 01101111 01110100 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110011	s
01101100	l
01101001	i
01110000	p
01101011	k
01101110	n
01101111	o
01110100	t
00

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