Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if x < -0.9966163161558536 or 1.0115407637064349 < x

    1. Initial program 30.6

      \[\frac{x}{x \cdot x + 1}\]
    2. Simplified30.6

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x}{(x \cdot x + 1)_*}}\]
    3. Taylor expanded around -inf 0.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{1}{{x}^{5}} + \frac{1}{x}\right) - \frac{1}{{x}^{3}}}\]

    if -0.9966163161558536 < x < 1.0115407637064349

    1. Initial program 0.0

    3. Taylor expanded around 0 0.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(x + {x}^{5}\right) - {x}^{3}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification0.2
