Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if x < -7.875172610670247e-05

    1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-cube-cbrt0.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\sqrt[3]{\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}} \cdot \sqrt[3]{\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}}}\]

    if -7.875172610670247e-05 < x

    1. Initial program 60.8

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

    2. 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.
