Comment #8 on issue 3117 by smi...@gmail.com: -+inf with pretty printer and Float('inf')
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=3117

What's the difference between symbolic and floating infinity? This is really strange to have SymPy dealing with two types of infinity. And the output you get demonstrates the oddness. The answer hard coded for symbolic -infinity is oo (which matches wolfram Alpha).

Do we really want a number line that looks like

-oo, more negative than most negative float, most neg float, (0, 0.0), most pos float, bigger than most positive float, +oo?

What is the purpose of the floating 0 and infinities?
