Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes
  2. if (- (* x y) (* (* z 9.0) t)) < -1.735744315352809e297

    1. Initial program Error: 59.2 bits

      \[\frac{x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t}{a \cdot 2}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 Error: 58.6 bits

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{0.5 \cdot \frac{x \cdot y}{a} - 4.5 \cdot \frac{t \cdot z}{a}}\]
    3. SimplifiedError: 0.4 bits

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{0.5 \cdot \left(y \cdot \frac{x}{a}\right) - 4.5 \cdot \left(z \cdot \frac{t}{a}\right)}\]

    if -1.735744315352809e297 < (- (* x y) (* (* z 9.0) t)) < 4.5641734466791008e256

    1. Initial program Error: 0.8 bits

      \[\frac{x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t}{a \cdot 2}\]
    2. Using strategy rm
    3. Applied div-invError: 0.9 bits

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t\right) \cdot \frac{1}{a \cdot 2}}\]

    if 4.5641734466791008e256 < (- (* x y) (* (* z 9.0) t))

    1. Initial program Error: 42.0 bits

      \[\frac{x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t}{a \cdot 2}\]
    2. SimplifiedError: 41.5 bits

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x \cdot y - z \cdot \left(9 \cdot t\right)}{a \cdot 2}}\]
    3. Using strategy rm
    4. Applied div-subError: 41.5 bits

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\frac{x \cdot y}{a \cdot 2} - \frac{z \cdot \left(9 \cdot t\right)}{a \cdot 2}}\]
    5. SimplifiedError: 21.9 bits

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{y \cdot \frac{x}{a \cdot 2}} - \frac{z \cdot \left(9 \cdot t\right)}{a \cdot 2}\]
    6. SimplifiedError: 0.8 bits

      \[\leadsto y \cdot \frac{x}{a \cdot 2} - \color{blue}{\left(9 \cdot t\right) \cdot \frac{z}{a \cdot 2}}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplificationError: 0.8 bits

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t \leq -1.735744315352809 \cdot 10^{+297}:\\ \;\;\;\;0.5 \cdot \left(y \cdot \frac{x}{a}\right) - 4.5 \cdot \left(z \cdot \frac{t}{a}\right)\\ \mathbf{elif}\;x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t \leq 4.564173446679101 \cdot 10^{+256}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(x \cdot y - \left(z \cdot 9\right) \cdot t\right) \cdot \frac{1}{a \cdot 2}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;y \cdot \frac{x}{a \cdot 2} - \left(9 \cdot t\right) \cdot \frac{z}{a \cdot 2}\\ \end{array}\]
