Decoding Process: cHVyaWZpZXI= to purifier

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "cHVyaWZpZXI=" 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
H	000111	7
V	010101	21
y	110010	50
a	011010	26
W	010110	22
Z	011001	25
p	101001	41
Z	011001	25
X	010111	23
I	001000	8
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110000 01110101 01110010 01101001 01100110 01101001 01100101 01110010 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110000	p
01110101	u
01110010	r
01101001	i
01100110	f
01101001	i
01100101	e
01110010	r
00

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