Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (- (exp (* a x)) 1) < -6.961929278684567e-15

    1. Initial program 0.9

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

    3. Applied add-log-exp0.9

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\log \left(e^{e^{a \cdot x} - 1}\right)}\]

    if -6.961929278684567e-15 < (- (exp (* a x)) 1)

    1. Initial program 45.1

      \[e^{a \cdot x} - 1\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 13.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{6} \cdot \left({a}^{3} \cdot {x}^{3}\right) + \left(\frac{1}{2} \cdot \left({a}^{2} \cdot {x}^{2}\right) + a \cdot x\right)}\]

    3. Applied simplify0.4

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