# Scripts to generate polynomial approximations for expm1f function using Sollya.
#
# To compute expm1f(x), for |x| > Ln(2), using expf(x) - 1.0f is accurate enough, since catastrophic
# cancellation does not occur with the subtraction.
#
# For |x| <= Ln(2), we divide [-Ln2; Ln2] into 3 subintervals: [-Ln2; -1/8], [-1/8, 1/8], [1/8, Ln2],
# and use a degree-6 polynomial to approximate expm1f in each interval.
> f := expm1(x);
# Polynomial approximation for e^(x) - 1 on [-Ln2, -1/8].
> P1 := fpminmax(f, [|0, ..., 6|], [|24...], [-log(2), -1/8], relative);
> log2(supnorm(P1, f, [-log(2), -1/8], relative, 2^(-50)));
