[Axiom-mail] integrate the PDF of normal distribution |

Hi group,
What is the prpper way to integrate the PDF of normal distribution?
I tried:
(4) ->
integrate(x/(sigma*sqrt(2*%pi))*exp(-(x-mu)**2/(2*sigma**2)),x=%minusInfinity..%plusInfinity)
(4) ->
(4) "failed"
Type: Union(fail: failed,...)
But if I give a value to sigma, then it works:
(9) -> sigma:=10
(9) ->
(9) 10
(11) ->
integrate(x/(sigma*sqrt(2*%pi))*exp(-(x-mu)**2/(2*sigma**2)),x=%minusInfinity..%plusInfinity)
(11) ->
+---+
2mu\|%pi
(11) -----------
+-+ +----+
\|2 \|2%pi
Type: Union(f1: OrderedCompletion Expression Integer,...)
Is it possible for axiom to work without specify a value to sigma?
Thanks,
Ming
