-# = base64.rb: methods for base64-encoding and -decoding strings
-#
-
-# The Base64 module provides for the encoding (#encode64, #strict_encode64,
-# #urlsafe_encode64) and decoding (#decode64, #strict_decode64,
-# #urlsafe_decode64) of binary data using a Base64 representation.
-#
-# == Example
-#
-# A simple encoding and decoding.
-#
-# require "base64"
-#
-# enc = Base64.encode64('Send reinforcements')
-# # -> "U2VuZCByZWluZm9yY2VtZW50cw==\n"
-# plain = Base64.decode64(enc)
-# # -> "Send reinforcements"
-#
-# The purpose of using base64 to encode data is that it translates any
-# binary data into purely printable characters.
