Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (*.f64 -2 x) < -8961.9218181105753 or 1.1929614228732248e-9 < (*.f64 -2 x)

    1. Initial program 0.2

      \[\frac{2}{1 + e^{-2 \cdot x}} - 1\]

    if -8961.9218181105753 < (*.f64 -2 x) < 1.1929614228732248e-9

    1. Initial program 58.8

      \[\frac{2}{1 + e^{-2 \cdot x}} - 1\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\left(x + 0.13333333333333333 \cdot {x}^{5}\right) - 0.3333333333333333 \cdot {x}^{3}}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification0.3

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;-2 \cdot x \leq -8961.921818110575 \lor \neg \left(-2 \cdot x \leq 1.1929614228732248 \cdot 10^{-09}\right):\\ \;\;\;\;\frac{2}{1 + e^{-2 \cdot x}} - 1\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\left(x + 0.13333333333333333 \cdot {x}^{5}\right) - 0.3333333333333333 \cdot {x}^{3}\\ \end{array}\]
