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

Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (/ 1 (- 1 (exp (- x)))) < -82.15533673966395 or 1.0 < (/ 1 (- 1 (exp (- x))))

    1. Initial program 60.1

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

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{2} + \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{12} \cdot x\right)}\]

    if -82.15533673966395 < (/ 1 (- 1 (exp (- x)))) < 1.0

    1. Initial program 1.2

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

    3. Applied clear-num1.2

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

    4. Applied simplify0.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{1}{\color{blue}{1 - e^{-x}}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
