About the '=' Padding

Base64 encoding requires the input length (in bytes) to be divisible by 3. If it's not, padding is added: One '=' character is added when the input length modulo 3 equals 2. This ensures the encoded output is properly aligned.

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII Character	Binary Value
d	01100100
e	01100101
v	01110110
e	01100101
l	01101100
o	01101111
p	01110000
s	01110011

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

The binary string is grouped into 6-bit chunks for Base64 encoding:

011001 000110 010101 110110 011001 010110 110001 101111 011100 000111 0011

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary Value	Base64 Character
011001	Z
000110	G
010101	V
110110	2
011001	Z
010110	W
110001	x
101111	v
011100	c
000111	H
0011	M

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "ZGV2ZWxvcHM="
