function Kf_R1psm (Y : Common_Float) return Common_Float is

-- On input, Y lies in the interval [-1/64, 1/64]
-- On output, the value sqrt( 1 + Y ) - 1 is returned.
-- The approximation employs both minmax polynomial and Newton Iteration.
--
-- First, sqrt(1+Y)-1 is approximated by a polynomial of the form
--    0.5 Y - Y^2*(A1 - Y*(A2 - Y*(A3 ... ))).
-- Depending of the number of digits required, this polynomial may or may
-- not be the value return. Should the polynomial fall short of the
-- accuracy requirement, one step of the Newton iteration is applied to
-- the equation
--      (P + 1)^2   =   1 + Y, where P is the unknown.
-- Thus,
--      new P  :=   P   -  (P^2 + 2P - Y)/(2P + 2)
-- where the initial guess P is the value of the polynomial.
