Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if x < -1.3282714360887295e+154

    1. Initial program 64.0

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

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 0.0

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

    if -1.3282714360887295e+154 < x < 2.64036770613704e+104

    1. Initial program 0.0

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

    if 2.64036770613704e+104 < x

    1. Initial program 48.6

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

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 0.5

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

    3. Simplified0.5

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

  4. Final simplification0.1

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -1.32827143608872947 \cdot 10^{154}:\\ \;\;\;\;-\left(x + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{y}{x}\right)\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \le 2.6403677061370399 \cdot 10^{104}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{x \cdot x + y}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\mathsf{fma}\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{y}{x}, x\right)\\ \end{array}\]
