Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if x < -0.0024790429764073047

    1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    2. Initial simplification0.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    3. Using strategy rm
    4. Applied add-sqr-sqrt0.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{e^{x}}{\color{blue}{\sqrt{e^{x}} \cdot \sqrt{e^{x}}} - 1}\]
    5. Applied difference-of-sqr-10.0

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

    if -0.0024790429764073047 < x

    1. Initial program 60.2

      \[\frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    2. Initial simplification60.2

      \[\leadsto \frac{e^{x}}{e^{x} - 1}\]
    3. Taylor expanded around 0 1.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{1}{12} \cdot x + \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{2}\right)}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification0.7

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -0.0024790429764073047:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{e^{x}}{\left(\sqrt{e^{x}} - 1\right) \cdot \left(1 + \sqrt{e^{x}}\right)}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;x \cdot \frac{1}{12} + \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{2}\right)\\ \end{array}\]
