Decoding Process: dW5pdmVyc2lkYWQ= to universidad

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "dW5pdmVyc2lkYWQ=" 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
W	010110	22
5	111001	57
p	101001	41
d	011101	29
m	100110	38
V	010101	21
y	110010	50
c	011100	28
2	110110	54
l	100101	37
k	100100	36
Y	011000	24
W	010110	22
Q	010000	16
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110101 01101110 01101001 01110110 01100101 01110010 01110011 01101001 01100100 01100001 01100100 00

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110101	u
01101110	n
01101001	i
01110110	v
01100101	e
01110010	r
01110011	s
01101001	i
01100100	d
01100001	a
01100100	d
00

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