Michael, The 1/10 in the 1st expression enables an exact evaluation, while the 0.1 in the 2nd expression forces a numerical evaluation. Avoid floating point numbers with decimal points if you want an exact answer.

I found that evaluation of this 2 integrals yield a bit different result. What could be the reason? Integrate[E^(-1/10 ((1 + r2z)^2)), {r2z, -Infinity, Infinity}] Integrate[E^(-0.1 ((1 + r2z)^2)), {r2z, -Infinity, Infinity}]
