Error

Bits error versus x

Derivation

  1. Initial program 57.9

    \[\frac{e^{x} - e^{-x}}{2}\]
  2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.6

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{2 \cdot x + \left(\frac{1}{3} \cdot {x}^{3} + \frac{1}{60} \cdot {x}^{5}\right)}}{2}\]
  3. Simplified0.6

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{x + \left(x + \left(\frac{1}{3} \cdot {x}^{3} + \frac{1}{60} \cdot {x}^{5}\right)\right)}}{2}\]
  4. Using strategy rm
  5. Applied associate-+r+0.6

    \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(x + x\right) + \left(\frac{1}{3} \cdot {x}^{3} + \frac{1}{60} \cdot {x}^{5}\right)}}{2}\]
  6. Final simplification0.6

    \[\leadsto \frac{\left(x + x\right) + \left(\frac{1}{3} \cdot {x}^{3} + \frac{1}{60} \cdot {x}^{5}\right)}{2}\]
