Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (exp x) < 4.8146582845782927e-35

    1. Initial program 0

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

    3. Applied clear-num0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\frac{e^{x} - 1}{e^{x}}}}\]

    4. Applied simplify0.0

    if 4.8146582845782927e-35 < (exp x)

    1. Initial program 59.8

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

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 1.1

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