Also norms of prime ideals in Z[sqrt(-2)], which is a unique factorization domain. The norm of a nonzero ideal I in a ring R is defined as the size of the quotient ring R/I.

Consists of the primes congruent to 1, 2, 3 modulo 8 and the squares of primes congruent to 5, 7 modulo 8.

For primes p == 1, 3 (mod 8), there are two distinct ideals with norm p in Z[sqrt(2)], namely (x + y*sqrt(-2)) and (x - y*sqrt(-2)), where (x,y) is a solution to x^2 + 2*y^2 = p; for p = 2, (sqrt(-2)) is the unique ideal with norm p; for p == 5, 7 (mod 8), (p) is the only ideal with norm p^2.

Example

norm(1 + sqrt(-2)) = norm(1 + sqrt(-2)) = 3;
norm(3 + sqrt(-2)) = norm(3 + sqrt(-2)) = 11;
norm(3 + 2*sqrt(-2)) = norm(3 + 2*sqrt(-2)) = 17;
norm(1 + 3*sqrt(-2)) = norm(1 + 3*sqrt(-2)) = 19.
