One way to judge the quality of pi approximation can be to take the number of pi digits it accurately represents versus how many digits there are in the approximation formula -- this says kind of the approximation's [compression](compression.md) ratio. But other factors may be important too, e.g. simplicity of evaluation, functions used etc.
An ugly engineering [approximation](approximation.md) that's actually usable sometimes (e.g. for fast rough estimates with integer-only hardware) is just (infamously almost made the legal value of pi by the so called Indiana bill in 1897)
