Decoding Process: dWNsYQ== to ucla

About the '=' Padding

The '=' at the end of "dWNsYQ==" 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
N	001101	13
s	101100	44
Y	011000	24
Q	010000	16
=	padding (000000)	-
=	padding (000000)	-

Step 2: Group Bits into Bytes

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

01110101 01100011 01101100 01100001 0000

Step 3: Convert Binary to ASCII

Binary Value	ASCII Character
01110101	u
01100011	c
01101100	l
01100001	a
0000

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