How to convert base64 string to binary array using php

问题

I have base 64 encoded string that looks something like this.

cuVrcYvlqYze3OZ8Y5tSqQY205mcquu0GsHkgXe4bPg=

I have tried base64_decode and output is.

Thanks

like this

$a = base64_decode("cuVrcYvlqYze3OZ8Y5tSqQY205mcquu0GsHkgXe4bPg=");
$b = array();
foreach(str_split($a) as $c)
    $b[] = sprintf("%08b", ord($c));
print_r($b);

You already are getting binary data back from base64_decode (if the encoded data was in fact binary), only this binary data is interpreted as encoding for some text by whatever you're outputting to (browser?). A "0011010110011001" output itself would also only be text, which would be encoded using some (different) binary stream. The computer does not work with 1's and 0's internally, contrary to popular believe. If you want to visualize binary data in the form of 1's and 0's, you'll need to do the binary/text conversion yourself. Usually that's a pretty pointless thing to do, though.

You're probably already doing the right thing. Your mistake is in expecting binary data to be represented as "0100101010".
