Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if y < -142834896.66603637 or 28334228.202803146 < y

    1. Initial program 46.3

      \[1 - \log \left(1 - \frac{x - y}{1 - y}\right)\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 0.1

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

    3. Simplified0.1

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

    if -142834896.66603637 < y < 28334228.202803146

    1. Initial program 0.1

      \[1 - \log \left(1 - \frac{x - y}{1 - y}\right)\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied add-cube-cbrt0.1

      \[\leadsto 1 - \log \left(1 - \frac{x - y}{\color{blue}{\left(\sqrt[3]{1 - y} \cdot \sqrt[3]{1 - y}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{1 - y}}}\right)\]

    4. Applied *-un-lft-identity0.1

      \[\leadsto 1 - \log \left(1 - \frac{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(x - y\right)}}{\left(\sqrt[3]{1 - y} \cdot \sqrt[3]{1 - y}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{1 - y}}\right)\]

    5. Applied times-frac0.1

      \[\leadsto 1 - \log \left(1 - \color{blue}{\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{1 - y} \cdot \sqrt[3]{1 - y}} \cdot \frac{x - y}{\sqrt[3]{1 - y}}}\right)\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.1

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;y \le -142834896.66603637 \lor \neg \left(y \le 28334228.2028031461\right):\\ \;\;\;\;1 - \log \left(1 \cdot \left(\frac{x}{{y}^{2}} - \frac{1}{y}\right) + \frac{x}{y}\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;1 - \log \left(1 - \frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{1 - y} \cdot \sqrt[3]{1 - y}} \cdot \frac{x - y}{\sqrt[3]{1 - y}}\right)\\ \end{array}\]
