Derivation

  1. Initial program 17.1

    \[\frac{e^{a}}{e^{a} + e^{b}}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied add-exp-log 17.1

    \[\leadsto \frac{e^{a}}{\color{blue}{e^{\log \left(e^{a} + e^{b}\right)}}}\]

  4. Applied div-exp 0.4

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{e^{a - \log \left(e^{a} + e^{b}\right)}}\]
  5. Removed slow pow expressions
