As reported on [http://ask.sagemath.org/question/24412/integral-from-sin-
at-plus-minus-infinity-seems-to-be-bad/?answer=24413#post-id-24413 this
ask question], Maxima seems to know that integrating an odd function
between two opposite endpoints leads to zero, however it applies this rule
even when the integral is not defined:
{{{
sage: integrate(sin(x), x, -oo, oo)
0
sage: integrate(tan(x), x, -oo, oo)
0
}}}
However,
{{{
sage: integrate(arctan(x), x, -oo, oo)
ValueError: Integral is divergent.
}}}
