Decoding Process: dGhyb3R0bGU= to throttle

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "dGhyb3R0bGU=" 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
d	011101	29
G	000110	6
h	100001	33
y	110010	50
b	011011	27
3	110111	55
R	010001	17
0	110100	52
b	011011	27
G	000110	6
U	010100	20
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110100 01101000 01110010 01101111 01110100 01110100 01101100 01100101 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110100	t
01101000	h
01110010	r
01101111	o
01110100	t
01110100	t
01101100	l
01100101	e
00

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