Encoding Process: mccartney to bWNjYXJ0bmV5

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII CharacterBinary Value
m01101101
c01100011
c01100011
a01100001
r01110010
t01110100
n01101110
e01100101
y01111001

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

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

011011 010110 001101 100011 011000 010111 001001 110100 011011 100110 010101 111001

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary ValueBase64 Character
011011b
010110W
001101N
100011j
011000Y
