Binary code is the fundamental language of computers, representing all data as a series of 0s and 1s. This tool allows you to convert binary code back into human-readable text (ASCII or UTF-8).

When is this useful?

• Computer Science Education: It's a great way to understand how text is stored and represented at a low level.
• Debugging: Useful when examining file contents or network packets to understand the underlying data.
• Puzzles and CTFs: Binary-encoded messages are a common element in capture-the-flag competitions and coding puzzles.

How It Works

The tool reads the binary input string, typically in chunks of 8 bits (one byte). Each 8-bit chunk is converted into its corresponding decimal value, which then maps to a character in the ASCII or UTF-8 character set. For example, the binary `01001000` is `72` in decimal, which represents the character 'H'.
