Examples

C#

// Encode and decoding using Base32Encoding
Base32Encoding base32 = new Base32Encoding();
byte[] data = Enumerable.Range(1, 10).Select(i => (byte)i).ToArray();

// Encode data byte[]
// 0x1 0x2 0x3 0x4 0x5 0x6 0x7 0x8 0x9 0xA
string encoded = base32.Encode(data);

// encoded string
// BQAGACUAGYBQQEIB

// Decode encodes string 
byte[] decoded = base32.Decode(encoded);

// decoded byte[]
// 0x1 0x2 0x3 0x4 0x5 0x6 0x7 0x8 0x9 0xA
