I think there is a bug when using integrate for integrating a function which is
0 in a whole sub-interval. For example:
#define uniform function
f<-function(x){ifelse(x<1,0,ifelse(x<3,1,0))}
#this is the correct integral
integrate(f,-10,10)
#here there is a problem
integrate(f,-50,50)
integrate(f,-10,50)
integrate(f,-50,10)
integrate(f,-50,50,sub=10000)
# I noticed this for a more complex function, but as you see even for a trivial
# function there is a serious problem
