Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (* a x) < -0.351178629440895

    1. Initial program 0.0

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

    2. Initial simplification0.0

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

    4. Applied add-log-exp0.0

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

    5. Applied rem-exp-log0.0

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

    if -0.351178629440895 < (* a x)

    1. Initial program 43.8

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

    2. Initial simplification43.8

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

    3. Taylor expanded around 0 14.0

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

    4. Simplified0.6

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

  4. Final simplification0.4

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;a \cdot x \le -0.351178629440895:\\ \;\;\;\;e^{a \cdot x} - 1\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\left(\frac{1}{6} \cdot x\right) \cdot a + \frac{1}{2}\right) \cdot \left(\left(a \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(a \cdot x\right)\right) + a \cdot x\\ \end{array}\]
