Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if x < -1.3559679438987683e+154

    1. Initial program 64.0

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + y}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-\left(x + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{y}{x}\right)}\]

    if -1.3559679438987683e+154 < x < 6.210525943263359e+71

    1. Initial program 0.0

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + y}\]

    if 6.210525943263359e+71 < x

    1. Initial program 42.3

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + y}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 1.7

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{y}{x}}\]

    3. Simplified1.7

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{y}{x}, x\right)}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.4

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -1.35596794389876828 \cdot 10^{154}:\\ \;\;\;\;-\left(x + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{y}{x}\right)\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \le 6.210525943263359 \cdot 10^{71}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{x \cdot x + y}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{y}{x}, x\right)\\ \end{array}\]
