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
i	01101001
s	01110011
c	01100011
r	01110010
i	01101001
m	01101101
i	01101001
n	01101110
a	01100001
t	01110100
o	01101111
r	01110010
y	01111001

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

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

011001 000110 100101 110011 011000 110111 001001 101001 011011 010110 100101 101110 011000 010111 010001 101111 011100 100111 1001

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary Value	Base64 Character
011001	Z
000110	G
100101	l
110011	z
011000	Y
110111	3
001001	J
101001	p
011011	b
010110	W
100101	l
101110	u
011000	Y
010111	X
010001	R
101111	v
011100	c
100111	n
1001	k

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "ZGlzY3JpbWluYXRvcnk="
