Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes.
  2. if x < -4.703456140208716e-07

    1. Initial program 0.1

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]

    if -4.703456140208716e-07 < x

    1. Initial program 60.7

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    2. Applied taylor 0.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{1}{2} + \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{12} \cdot x\right)\]
    3. Taylor expanded around 0 0.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{2} + \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{12} \cdot x\right)}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions
