Derivation

1. Split input into 2 regimes

2. if (- (/ x (+ x 1.0)) (/ (+ x 1.0) (- x 1.0))) < 1.6465100237672559e-06

   1. Initial program 59.0

      \[\frac{x}{x + 1} - \frac{x + 1}{x - 1}\]

   2. Taylor expanded around inf 0.5

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-\left(1 \cdot \frac{1}{{x}^{2}} + \left(3 \cdot \frac{1}{x} + 3 \cdot \frac{1}{{x}^{3}}\right)\right)}\]

   3. Simplified 0.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(\frac{-1}{{x}^{2}} - \frac{3}{x}\right) - \frac{3}{{x}^{3}}}\]

   if 1.6465100237672559e-06 < (- (/ x (+ x 1.0)) (/ (+ x 1.0) (- x 1.0)))

   1. Initial program 0.1

      \[\frac{x}{x + 1} - \frac{x + 1}{x - 1}\]
   2. Using strategy rm

   3. Applied add-log-exp 0.1

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

   4. Applied add-log-exp 0.1

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

   5. Applied diff-log 0.1

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

   6. Simplified 0.1

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

4. Final simplification 0.2

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\frac{x}{x + 1} - \frac{x + 1}{x - 1} \le 1.64651002377 \cdot 10^{-6}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\frac{-1}{{x}^{2}} - \frac{3}{x}\right) - \frac{3}{{x}^{3}}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\log \left(e^{\frac{x}{x + 1} - \frac{x + 1}{x - 1}}\right)\\ \end{array}\]
