Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (/.f64 (-.f64 beta alpha) (+.f64 (+.f64 alpha beta) 2)) < -0.999999861246021138

    1. Initial program 59.7

      \[\frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1}{2}\]

    2. Taylor expanded around inf 2.4

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(2 \cdot \frac{\beta}{\alpha} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{\alpha}\right) - \left(6 \cdot \frac{\beta}{{\alpha}^{2}} + \left(4 \cdot \frac{1}{{\alpha}^{2}} + 2 \cdot \frac{{\beta}^{2}}{{\alpha}^{2}}\right)\right)}}{2}\]

    3. Simplified0.0

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\left(\left(\frac{2}{\alpha} + \frac{\beta}{\alpha} \cdot \left(2 - \frac{6}{\alpha}\right)\right) - \frac{4}{\alpha \cdot \alpha}\right) + \left(\frac{\beta}{\alpha} \cdot \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\right) \cdot -2}}{2}\]

    if -0.999999861246021138 < (/.f64 (-.f64 beta alpha) (+.f64 (+.f64 alpha beta) 2))

    1. Initial program 0.1

      \[\frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2} + 1}{2}\]
    2. Using strategy rm

    3. Applied *-un-lft-identity_binary640.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\beta - \alpha}{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2\right)}} + 1}{2}\]

    4. Applied *-un-lft-identity_binary640.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\frac{\color{blue}{1 \cdot \left(\beta - \alpha\right)}}{1 \cdot \left(\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2\right)} + 1}{2}\]

    5. Applied times-frac_binary640.1

      \[\leadsto \frac{\color{blue}{\frac{1}{1} \cdot \frac{\beta - \alpha}{\left(\alpha + \beta\right) + 2}} + 1}{2}\]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.
