What are the different encoding types?
- Base64: Encodes binary data as a string of ASCII characters.
- URL Encoding: Encodes special characters in a URL to make it valid.
- Binary: Converts text to its binary representation (0s and 1s).
- Hex: Converts text to its hexadecimal representation (base-16).
