%F Equals Integral_{-infinity..infinity} exp(-x^2)/(1+x^2) dx.

%F Also equals J(0) where J(c) = Integral_{-infinity..infinity} exp(-(x-c)^2)/(1+x^2) dx = (1/2)*Pi*e*(erfc[1-c*i]*e^(-2*c*i) + erfc[1+c*i]*e^(2*c*i)), where the integrand comes from a shifted normal PDF times a Cauchy PDF.

%F Equals 2 * Integral_{x=0..Pi/2} exp(-tan(x)^2) dx. - _Amiram Eldar_, Aug 07 2020
