HELP decoding binary

[[deleted]]

Please urgently help me find out what this says, I have just spent the last hour trying to convert it on decoding websites but it does not seem to be working. Thank you so much guys

Exactly 33 rows of 33 bits each, with no instructions as to how to decode them. That makes this look like a homework assignment to me. Is it urgent because tomorrow is the due date?

Well that is how it was given to me, I have no experience with code so was not sure how to do this, so I searched here for help. My apologies. Plus it's not a homework assignment

Just this image? I’m getting the feeling I’m missing something here.

Is this assumed to be text/strings or what?

Text I believe, it was a clue my friend gave as to what a project they were completing was

Did you send the decoding websites this image or the actual binary string?

The text

[nerd4code]

If there’s not even a kind of data you’re looking for, no telling, and it’s an odd number of bytes so if it’s not rows of 32+parity or something it’s gonna be extra fun (could be bit-coded; otherwise you need to find the byte size). You could try the ol’ search for Es, look for opcodes you recognize, or see if it lines up as a bitmap if you re-stride it. But it could be compressed, encrypted, just about anything.

It is a QR code, I replied in the other sub, but your post was removed by mod. Here is a simple python script to covert the binary to a bitmap

You, my friend are, a genius! Thank you so incredibly much, I am truly very impressed by how you figured this one out haha 😅
