Derivation

1. Split input into 3 regimes

2. if y < -1.3045375288630825e+151

   1. Initial program 62.8

      \[\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}\]

   2. Taylor expanded around 0 0

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1}\]

   if -1.3045375288630825e+151 < y < -1.5325604163401249e-137 or 2.5489728175505276e-164 < y

   1. Initial program 0.1

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

   3. Applied add-cube-cbrt 0.1

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

   if -1.5325604163401249e-137 < y < 2.5489728175505276e-164

   1. Initial program 27.0

      \[\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}\]

   2. Taylor expanded around inf 16.7

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{1}\]
3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

4. Final simplification 5.7

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;y \le -1.30453752886308246 \cdot 10^{151}:\\ \;\;\;\;-1\\ \mathbf{elif}\;y \le -1.5325604163401249 \cdot 10^{-137}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}} \cdot \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;y \le 2.5489728175505276 \cdot 10^{-164}:\\ \;\;\;\;1\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(\sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}} \cdot \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}}\right) \cdot \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}}\\ \end{array}\]
