Decoding Process: dHVsaXA= to tulip

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "dHVsaXA=" 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
H	000111	7
V	010101	21
s	101100	44
a	011010	26
X	010111	23
A	000000	0
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110100 01110101 01101100 01101001 01110000 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110100	t
01110101	u
01101100	l
01101001	i
01110000	p
00

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