The formula to calculate the Gematria value of a text is:
\[ G = \sum (\text{value of each letter}) \]
Where:
Gematria is an alphanumeric code of assigning a numerical value to a name, word, or phrase based on its letters. A single word can yield multiple values depending on the cipher used. Gematria is often used in Jewish culture and has associations with numerology. The practice has roots in the interpretation of ancient texts.
Example:
Step 1: Calculate the Gematria value:
\[ H = 8, E = 5, L = 12, L = 12, O = 15 \]
\[ G = 8 + 5 + 12 + 12 + 15 = 52 \]
