Base64 Converter

Base64 is a group of binary-to-text encoding algorithms that transform binary data (often an 8-bit sequence) into 24-bit sequences. It is also often used to embed binary data into text documents like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and XML. Given its prominence, Base64 is well-documented, supported by a variety of computer languages, has produced a myriad of versions, and, of course, has its own specification.

The Base64 Alphabet is a collection of 64 basic ASCII characters that are used to encode data. These 64 characters are enough to encode any length of data. The only disadvantage is that the size of the result will grow to 33%. However, the benefits are substantial, especially because all of these symbols are available in 7-bit and 8-bit character sets.

Base64 alphabet characters are classified into four groups:

• 26 uppercase letters (A-Z)
• 26 lowercase letters (a-z)
• 10 numbers (0-9)
• + and / as padding character
