I have the following SVG:
Here is how you can create a rounded rectangle with SVG Path:
Explanation
m100,100: move to point(100,100)
h200: draw a 200px horizontal line from where we are
a20,20 0 0 1 20,20: draw an arc with 20px X radius, 20px Y radius, clockwise, to a point with 20px difference in X and Y axis
v200: draw a 200px vertical line from where we are
a20,20 0 0 1 -20,20: draw an arc with 20px X and Y radius, clockwise, to a point with -20px difference in X and 20px difference in Y axis
h-200: draw a -200px horizontal line from where we are
a20,20 0 0 1 -20,-20: draw an arc with 20px X and Y radius, clockwise, to a point with -20px difference in X and -20px difference in Y axis
v-200: draw a -200px vertical line from where we are
a20,20 0 0 1 20,-20: draw an arc with 20px X and Y radius, clockwise, to a point with 20px difference in X and -20px difference in Y axis
z: close the path
