Error

Bits error versus x

Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes
  2. if x < 1.978600608064798e-310

    1. Initial program 30.3

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + x \cdot x}\]
    2. Simplified30.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{x \cdot \left(x + x\right)}}\]
    3. Taylor expanded around -inf 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot \left(x \cdot \sqrt{2}\right)}\]
    4. Simplified0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-x \cdot \sqrt{2}}\]

    if 1.978600608064798e-310 < x

    1. Initial program 31.1

      \[\sqrt{x \cdot x + x \cdot x}\]
    2. Simplified31.1

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{x \cdot \left(x + x\right)}}\]
    3. Using strategy rm
    4. Applied sqrt-prod0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{x} \cdot \sqrt{x + x}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification0.4

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le 1.978600608064798 \cdot 10^{-310}:\\ \;\;\;\;-x \cdot \sqrt{2}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{x} \cdot \sqrt{x + x}\\ \end{array}\]
