in reply to Pi golf:

I suck at golf, but I can at least contribute a different algorithm for 66 characters:


($p,$o,$n)=(1,3,-1);for(1..10**6){$p+=$n/$o;$o+=2;$n=-$n}print$p*4

Obviously, also note that 10**6 (instead of 1000000) is an easy way for the other posters here to save another 2 characters.

    As long as we're worried about individual characters ... 1e6 is shorter than 10**6 by another 2 characters ;-)
