Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if (exp x) < 0.9994820352830056

    1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied add-cbrt-cube0.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{e^{x}}{\color{blue}{\sqrt[3]{\left(\left(e^{x} - 1\right) \cdot \left(e^{x} - 1\right)\right) \cdot \left(e^{x} - 1\right)}}}\]
    4. Applied simplify0.0

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

    if 0.9994820352830056 < (exp x)

    1. Initial program 60.3

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.8

      \[\leadsto \frac{e^{x}}{\color{blue}{\frac{1}{2} \cdot {x}^{2} + \left(\frac{1}{6} \cdot {x}^{3} + x\right)}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
