Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if x < -4.4940319537607468e66

    1. Initial program 51.0

      \[\sqrt{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around -inf 20.5

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

    3. Simplified20.5

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

    if -4.4940319537607468e66 < x < 3.88863330867275493e130

    1. Initial program 30.1

      \[\sqrt{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}\]

    if 3.88863330867275493e130 < x

    1. Initial program 59.6

      \[\sqrt{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 15.8

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

  4. Final simplification26.1

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \le -4.4940319537607468 \cdot 10^{66}:\\ \;\;\;\;-x\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \le 3.88863330867275493 \cdot 10^{130}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{\left(x \cdot x + y \cdot y\right) + z \cdot z}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;x\\ \end{array}\]
