17 characters become 21 UTF-8 bytes; as Base64 they take 28 characters, 1.33 per byte.

ਗਣਨਾ ਕਿਵੇਂ ਹੁੰਦੀ ਹੈ S

  1. Encode the text as UTF-8

    17 characters → 21 bytes.

  2. Regroup 8-bit bytes into 6-bit indices

    First group: 43 61 66 → 010000 110110 000101 100110 → 16, 54, 5, 38 → “Q2Fm”.

Base64, URL and HTML encoder and decoder ਬਾਰੇ

Every scheme here starts from the text's UTF-8 bytes. Base64 regroups each 3 bytes into four 6-bit values drawn from a 64-character alphabet (RFC 4648), so the output is 4 × ⌈n ÷ 3⌉ characters. Percent-encoding writes every byte outside A–Z, a–z, 0–9 and - . _ ~ as %XX (RFC 3986), HTML escaping replaces & < > " and ' with character references, and hex writes two digits per byte.

Developers use it to put binary data in JSON or email, build query strings, read JWTs and track down character-set problems. The default, "Café & crème, 5 €", is 17 characters but 21 UTF-8 bytes, because é and è take 2 bytes each and € takes 3, and its Base64 form is 28 characters.

A decoding error names the bad character and its position, and bytes that aren't valid UTF-8 show as U+FFFD (�).

ਸਵਾਲ

Why does Base64 make data about 33% larger?

Base64 carries 6 bits in each output character against 8 bits in each input byte, so every 3 bytes become 4 characters, a ratio of 4 to 3, plus up to 2 = padding characters at the end. 21 bytes become 28 characters, and 1 MB of binary becomes about 1.33 MB. MIME email (RFC 2045) also breaks the output into lines of at most 76 characters, which adds a little more.

What is the difference between Base64 and Base64URL?

Base64URL (RFC 4648 §5) replaces the two characters that clash with URLs and file names, + and /, with - and _, and usually drops the = padding. JSON Web Tokens (RFC 7519) use it for all three of their parts. The text <<???>> is PDw/Pz8+Pg== in standard Base64 and PDw_Pz8-Pg in the URL-safe form, 10 characters instead of 12.

Is Base64 a form of encryption?

No. Base64 is a reversible encoding with no key, so anyone can decode it in one step; it only makes binary data safe to carry as text. HTTP Basic authentication (RFC 7617), for example, sends user:password in Base64, which is why it is only safe over HTTPS. To protect data, encrypt it first, for example with AES-256, and then Base64-encode the ciphertext if it must travel as text.

Should a space be URL-encoded as %20 or +?

Both appear, in different places. RFC 3986, which governs URLs, encodes a space as %20, while HTML form submissions (application/x-www-form-urlencoded) write it as +. So a+b in a form's query string means a b, but in a URL path the + is a literal plus. JavaScript's encodeURIComponent gives %20, and Python's urllib.parse.quote_plus gives +.

How many bytes does a character take in UTF-8?

One to four. Code points below U+0080 (ASCII) take 1 byte, those up to U+07FF take 2 (é, ñ, Greek, Cyrillic), those up to U+FFFF take 3 (€ and most Chinese characters) and the rest take 4, including emoji such as 😀 (U+1F600). So A€😀 is 3 characters, 8 UTF-8 bytes and 4 UTF-16 code units, because 😀 needs a surrogate pair in UTF-16 (RFC 3629).
