Decoding Process: cmVkaXJlY3RlZA== to redirected

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "cmVkaXJlY3RlZA==" 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
m	100110	38
V	010101	21
k	100100	36
a	011010	26
X	010111	23
J	001001	9
l	100101	37
Y	011000	24
3	110111	55
R	010001	17
l	100101	37
Z	011001	25
A	000000	0
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110010 01100101 01100100 01101001 01110010 01100101 01100011 01110100 01100101 01100100 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110010	r
01100101	e
01100100	d
01101001	i
01110010	r
01100101	e
01100011	c
01110100	t
01100101	e
01100100	d
0000

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