Base64s

# Algorithm

Encrypting

1. Calculate the difference in length of byte array len(key) - len(src). If the result is a negative value, it is treated as 0.
2. XOR the source and key byte arrays in order and stores into a newly-allocated byte array.
3. Stores the result of (1) in the last byte.
4. Encode the byte array of (3) into a newly-allocated byte array using the Base64 encoding scheme.

Decrypting

Manipulate in the opposite way.
