Base32: Alternative encoding schemes, RFC 4648 encodings & Comparisons with other systems

Base32 is binary-to-text encoding based on the base-32 numeral system. It uses an alphabet of 32 digits, each of which represents a different combination of 5 bits (25). Since base32 is not very widely adopted, the question of notation i.e. which characters to use to represent the 32 digits is not as settled as in the case of more well-known numeral…
