Derivation

1. Split input into 2 regimes

2. if x < -8.07101911280139796e-297

   1. Initial program 29.5

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

   2. Taylor expanded in x around -inf 0.4

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

   3. Simplified 0.4

      \[\leadsto \color{blue}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \left(-x\right)} \]
      Proof
      (*.f64 (sqrt.f64 2) (neg.f64 x)): 0 points increase in error, 0 points decrease in error
      (Rewrite<= distribute-rgt-neg-in_binary64 (neg.f64 (*.f64 (sqrt.f64 2) x))): 0 points increase in error, 0 points decrease in error
      (Rewrite<= mul-1-neg_binary64 (*.f64 -1 (*.f64 (sqrt.f64 2) x))): 0 points increase in error, 0 points decrease in error

   if -8.07101911280139796e-297 < x

   1. Initial program 31.1

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

   2. Applied egg-rr 1.4

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

4. Final simplification 0.9

   \[\leadsto \begin{array}{l} \mathbf{if}\;x \leq -8.071019112801398 \cdot 10^{-297}:\\ \;\;\;\;x \cdot \left(-\sqrt{2}\right)\\ \mathbf{else}:\\ \;\;\;\;\sqrt{x \cdot 2} \cdot \sqrt{x}\\ \end{array} \]
