Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes
  2. if b < -7.641765040703004e+148

    1. Initial program 59.0

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 2.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{c}{b} - \frac{b}{a}}\]

    if -7.641765040703004e+148 < b < 2.34789448631425e-125

    1. Initial program 11.0

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 11.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{\color{blue}{{b}^{2} - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}}{2 \cdot a}\]

    if 2.34789448631425e-125 < b

    1. Initial program 50.4

      \[\frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{b \cdot b - \left(4 \cdot a\right) \cdot c}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 50.4

      \[\leadsto \frac{\left(-b\right) + \sqrt{\color{blue}{{b}^{2} - 4 \cdot \left(a \cdot c\right)}}}{2 \cdot a}\]
    3. Taylor expanded around inf 11.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot \frac{c}{b}}\]
    4. Simplified11.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{-c}{b}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification10.3

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;b \le -7.641765040703004 \cdot 10^{+148}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{c}{b} - \frac{b}{a}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;b \le 2.34789448631425 \cdot 10^{-125}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{\sqrt{{b}^{2} - \left(c \cdot a\right) \cdot 4} + \left(-b\right)}{a \cdot 2}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;-\frac{c}{b}\\ \end{array}\]
