Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if x < 0.00010417168329262867

    1. Initial program 59.7

      \[\log \left(1 + x\right)\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{1}{3} \cdot {x}^{3} + x\right) - \frac{1}{2} \cdot {x}^{2}}\]
    3. Applied simplify0.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x + \left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot \frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{2}\right)}\]

    if 0.00010417168329262867 < x

    1. Initial program 0.1

      \[\log \left(1 + x\right)\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions.
