Bits error versus c

Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if b/2 < -9.50419279716489e+152

    1. Initial program 60.1

      \[\frac{\left(-b/2\right) + \sqrt{b/2 \cdot b/2 - a \cdot c}}{a}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-2 \cdot \frac{b/2}{a}}\]

    if -9.50419279716489e+152 < b/2 < 7.580412743766101e-138

    1. Initial program 10.8

      \[\frac{\left(-b/2\right) + \sqrt{b/2 \cdot b/2 - a \cdot c}}{a}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied div-inv11.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\left(-b/2\right) + \sqrt{b/2 \cdot b/2 - a \cdot c}\right) \cdot \frac{1}{a}}\]

    if 7.580412743766101e-138 < b/2

    1. Initial program 58.9

      \[\frac{\left(-b/2\right) + \sqrt{b/2 \cdot b/2 - a \cdot c}}{a}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 15.4

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{-1}{2} \cdot \frac{c \cdot a}{b/2}}}{a}\]

    3. Applied simplify0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{c}{b/2} \cdot \frac{-1}{2}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.
  4. Removed slow pow expressions.
