Derivation

  1. Split input into 2 regimes

  2. if (sqrt.f64 (*.f64 2 (-.f64 (sqrt.f64 (+.f64 (*.f64 re re) (*.f64 im im))) re))) < 0.0

    1. Initial program 57.2

      \[0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} - re\right)} \]

    2. Simplified57.2

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\mathsf{hypot}\left(re, im\right) - re\right)}} \]

    3. Taylor expanded in re around inf 30.1

      \[\leadsto 0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \color{blue}{\left(0.5 \cdot \frac{{im}^{2}}{re}\right)}} \]

    if 0.0 < (sqrt.f64 (*.f64 2 (-.f64 (sqrt.f64 (+.f64 (*.f64 re re) (*.f64 im im))) re)))

    1. Initial program 36.5

      \[0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} - re\right)} \]

    2. Simplified7.3

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\mathsf{hypot}\left(re, im\right) - re\right)}} \]
  3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

  4. Final simplification10.1

    \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;\sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\sqrt{re \cdot re + im \cdot im} - re\right)} \leq 0:\\ \;\;\;\;0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(0.5 \cdot \frac{{im}^{2}}{re}\right)}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;0.5 \cdot \sqrt{2 \cdot \left(\mathsf{hypot}\left(re, im\right) - re\right)}\\ \end{array} \]
