 Replying to [comment:8 kcrisman]:
 > Thanks, Maldun, this is a good addition to have.  I don't have time to
 review this immediately, but it would be helpful to know if you detected
 any errors, compared this with symbolic integrals and their evaluation,
 etc.  Basically, that the results from this really are as accurate as
 advertised.

 patch you posted above, or even as an optional argument, though that may
 not be compatible with `_evalf_` elsewhere...

 I will consider this, but hopefully it is not necessary, and mpmath will
 do the whole thing.
 If I understood that right, burcin wants to change the numerical
 evaluation completly to mpmath, because it supports arbitrary prescision.

 I plyed arround a little, and I didn't find any differences between the
 other evaluation methods. In some cases it works even better (I had an
 example recently in ask sage, which motivated me to switch to this form ov
 _evalf_)
