Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes
  2. if y < -1.35317402077372551e154 or 2.67321507642417566e-189 < y < 3.651819525823324e-168

    1. Initial program 58.9

      \[\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around 0 5.4

    1. Initial program 0.4

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

    if -1.57462647136358043e-162 < y < 2.67321507642417566e-189

    1. Initial program 30.2

      \[\frac{\left(x - y\right) \cdot \left(x + y\right)}{x \cdot x + y \cdot y}\]
    2. Taylor expanded around inf 14.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{1}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.
  4. Final simplification5.3
