Error

Bits error versus x

Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if x < -0.02723846310730157 or 0.028828776095270153 < x

    1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\frac{x - \sin x}{x - \tan x}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied div-sub0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x}{x - \tan x} - \frac{\sin x}{x - \tan x}}\]

    if -0.02723846310730157 < x < 0.028828776095270153

    1. Initial program 62.7

      \[\frac{x - \sin x}{x - \tan x}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{9}{40} \cdot {x}^{2} - \left(\frac{27}{2800} \cdot {x}^{4} + \frac{1}{2}\right)}\]
    3. Simplified0.0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{(\left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \frac{9}{40} + \left((\frac{-27}{2800} \cdot \left(\left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)\right) + \frac{-1}{2})_*\right))_*}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification0.0

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -0.02723846310730157:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{x}{x - \tan x} - \frac{\sin x}{x - \tan x}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \le 0.028828776095270153:\\ \;\;\;\;(\left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \frac{9}{40} + \left((\frac{-27}{2800} \cdot \left(\left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)\right) + \frac{-1}{2})_*\right))_*\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{x}{x - \tan x} - \frac{\sin x}{x - \tan x}\\ \end{array}\]
