Bits error versus eps

Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes.

  2. if eps < -2.3416378887887987e-05 or 0.09998778751332403 < eps

    1. Initial program 30.7

      \[\cos \left(x + \varepsilon\right) - \cos x\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied cos-sum 0.9

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\cos x \cdot \cos \varepsilon - \sin x \cdot \sin \varepsilon\right)} - \cos x\]

    if -2.3416378887887987e-05 < eps < 0.09998778751332403

    1. Initial program 49.3

      \[\cos \left(x + \varepsilon\right) - \cos x\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied diff-cos 37.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-2 \cdot \left(\sin \left(\frac{\left(x + \varepsilon\right) - x}{2}\right) \cdot \sin \left(\frac{\left(x + \varepsilon\right) + x}{2}\right)\right)}\]

    4. Applied simplify 0.7

      \[\leadsto -2 \cdot \color{blue}{\left(\sin \left(\frac{\varepsilon}{2}\right) \cdot \sin \left(\frac{\varepsilon + \left(x + x\right)}{2}\right)\right)}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions
