Base64 Converter accuracy and testing

This page documents how Calwarden builds trust for this calculator: source notes, regression-style default tests, limitations, assumptions, unit handling, rounding, and visible change history.

Formula source

Base64 breaks binary data into 6-bit chunks and maps them to a set of 64 characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /). Because 6 bits is smaller than a byte (8 bits), the encoded string is roughly 33% larger than the original data.

Test cases

Default input regression check

Generated from the checked-in default inputs and calculate function.

Inputs

Input Text: Hello World
Action: Encode

Expected outputs

Encoded / Decoded Text: SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ=

Known limitations

This page documents the checked-in calculator logic and does not certify results for every real-world edge case.
Use the result as a planning estimate unless the calculator page states a stricter purpose.

Assumptions

This browser-based implementation is best for text strings and simple debugging workflows rather than large binary files.
Decode mode expects a valid Base64 string using the standard alphabet and optional `=` padding.
Characters outside the Latin1 range may need UTF-8-aware handling in other tooling even if your broader workflow uses Base64.

Unit handling

Input Text accepts text values.
Action accepts one of the configured options.

Rounding rules

Number displays use up to 2 decimal places in the calculator UI.
