Encoding Process: legacy to bGVnYWN5

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII CharacterBinary Value
l01101100
e01100101
g01100111
a01100001
c01100011
y01111001

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

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

011011 000110 010101 100111 011000 010110 001101 111001

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary ValueBase64 Character
011011b
000110G
010101V
100111n
011000Y
010110W
001101N
1110015

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "bGVnYWN5"
