Encoding Process: tacoma to dGFjb21h

Step 1: Map ASCII Characters to Binary

ASCII CharacterBinary Value
t01110100
a01100001
c01100011
o01101111
m01101101
a01100001

Step 2: Group Bits into 6-bit Chunks

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

011101 000110 000101 100011 011011 110110 110101 100001

Step 3: Convert Binary to Base64

Binary ValueBase64 Character
011101d
000110G
000101F
100011j
011011b
1101102
1101011
100001h

When combined, these characters form the encoded string: "dGFjb21h"
