Derivation

1. Split input into 2 regimes

2. if x < -5.6013836777585166e-304

   1. Initial program 30.5

      \[\sqrt{\left(2 \cdot x\right) \cdot x} \]

   2. Taylor expanded in x around -inf 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{-1 \cdot \left(\sqrt{2} \cdot x\right)} \]

   3. Simplified 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \left(-x\right)} \]

   if -5.6013836777585166e-304 < x

   1. Initial program 30.6

      \[\sqrt{\left(2 \cdot x\right) \cdot x} \]

   2. Applied egg-rr 0.8

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{2 \cdot x} \cdot \sqrt{x}} \]
3. Recombined 2 regimes into one program.

4. Final simplification 0.6

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \leq -5.601383677758517 \cdot 10^{-304}:\\ \;\;\;\;-x \cdot \sqrt{2}\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{x \cdot 2} \cdot \sqrt{x}\\ \end{array} \]
