I would like to learn more about this. Wiki says:

In the 5th century AD, Chinese mathematicians approximated π to seven digits, while Indian mathematicians made a five-digit approximation, both using techniques.

So it looks like they were all approximations, but it actually is much longer like I was always taught.
