Encoding Process: period to cGVyaW9k

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII CharacterBinary Value
p01110000
e01100101
r01110010
i01101001
o01101111
d01100100

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

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

011100 000110 010101 110010 011010 010110 111101 100100

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary ValueBase64 Character
011100c
000110G
010101V
110010y
011010a
010110W
1111019
100100k

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "cGVyaW9k"
