encodeToByteArray
fun encodeToByteArray(source: ByteArray, startIndex: Int = 0, endIndex: Int = source.size): ByteArray(source)
Encodes bytes from the specified source array or its subrange. Returns a ByteArray containing the resulting symbols.
If the size of the source array or its subrange is not an integral multiple of 3, the result is padded with '=' to an integral multiple of 4 symbols.
Each resulting symbol occupies one byte in the returned byte array.
Use encode to get the output in string form.
Since Kotlin
1.8Return
a ByteArray with the resulting symbols.
Parameters

startIndex
the beginning (inclusive) of the subrange to encode, 0 by default.
endIndex
the end (exclusive) of the subrange to encode, size of the source array by default.
Throws
when startIndex or endIndex is out of range of source array indices.
when startIndex > endIndex.
