Derivation

  1. Initial program 30.1

    \[\left(e^{x} - 2\right) + e^{-x}\]

  2. Simplified30.1

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(e^{x} - 2\right) - \frac{-1}{e^{x}}}\]

  3. Taylor expanded around 0 0.6

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{{x}^{2} + \left(\frac{1}{12} \cdot {x}^{4} + \frac{1}{360} \cdot {x}^{6}\right)}\]

  4. Simplified0.6

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right), \frac{1}{12}, \mathsf{fma}\left(\left(x \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)\right), \frac{1}{360}, x \cdot x\right)\right)}\]
