	return Float64(1.0 / Float64(Float64(Float64(x + 1.0) * sqrt(x)) + Float64(x * sqrt(Float64(x + 1.0)))))
end

MATLAB

function tmp = code(x)
	tmp = 1.0 / (((x + 1.0) * sqrt(x)) + (x * sqrt((x + 1.0))));
end

Wolfram

code[x_] := N[(1.0 / N[(N[(N[(x + 1.0), $MachinePrecision] * N[Sqrt[x], $MachinePrecision]), $MachinePrecision] + N[(x * N[Sqrt[N[(x + 1.0), $MachinePrecision]], $MachinePrecision]), $MachinePrecision]), $MachinePrecision]), $MachinePrecision]
