Derivation

  1. Split input into 3 regimes

  2. if i < -69221321268138.078

    1. Initial program 28.0

      \[100 \cdot \frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 64.0

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{e^{\left(\log \left(\frac{1}{n}\right) - \log \left(\frac{1}{i}\right)\right) \cdot n}} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    3. Simplified18.7

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{{\left(\frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n}} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    if -69221321268138.078 < i < 0.0544378144173804576

    1. Initial program 57.6

      \[100 \cdot \frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 27.2

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{i + \left(0.16666666666666666 \cdot {i}^{3} + 0.5 \cdot {i}^{2}\right)}}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    3. Simplified27.2

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \frac{\color{blue}{i + \left(i \cdot i\right) \cdot \left(0.5 + 0.16666666666666666 \cdot i\right)}}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    4. Taylor expanded around 0 10.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{50 \cdot \left(i \cdot n\right) + \left(100 \cdot n + 16.666666666666668 \cdot \left({i}^{2} \cdot n\right)\right)}\]

    5. Simplified10.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{n \cdot \left(100 + i \cdot \left(50 + 16.666666666666668 \cdot i\right)\right)}\]

    if 0.0544378144173804576 < i

    1. Initial program 32.1

      \[100 \cdot \frac{{\left(1 + \frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around 0 29.6

      \[\leadsto 100 \cdot \color{blue}{0}\]
  3. Recombined 3 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification14.7

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;i \leq -69221321268138.08:\\ \;\;\;\;100 \cdot \frac{{\left(\frac{i}{n}\right)}^{n} - 1}{\frac{i}{n}}\\ \mathbf{elif}\;i \leq 0.05443781441738046:\\ \;\;\;\;n \cdot \left(100 + i \cdot \left(50 + i \cdot 16.666666666666668\right)\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;0\\ \end{array}\]
