\[\mathsf{fma}\left(\left( 1.7 \cdot 10^{+308} \right), t, \left(-1.7 \cdot 10^{+308}\right)\right)\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 49.1

    \[1.7 \cdot 10^{+308} \cdot t - 1.7 \cdot 10^{+308}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied fma-neg0

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\left( 1.7 \cdot 10^{+308} \right), t, \left(-1.7 \cdot 10^{+308}\right)\right)}\]

  4. Final simplification0

    \[\leadsto \mathsf{fma}\left(\left( 1.7 \cdot 10^{+308} \right), t, \left(-1.7 \cdot 10^{+308}\right)\right)\]
