Something II Notice stroke-dasharray finding the perfect length.

At video 2:10 Teacher Guil Hernandez mention. How to find the length of the stroke-dasharray.

We found out it was stroke-dasharray: 810;

But i found this and i got the same result 810;

on the index.html file Line 8 that we got this

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" x="0" y="0" viewBox="210.7 336.7 125 135" width="340px">

If you add the first number and skip the second number and add the rest of the number we get 810. Is this coincidence?

210.7 + 125 + 135 + 340 = 810.

NOTE: Remove any decimal. 210.7 -> 210

210 + 125 + 135 + 340 = 810.

I would like to know this just to avoid using javascript to find the length for me.
