Line 16:
E.G. '''''5 = (2 + i)(2 − i)''''' So 5 is not a Gaussian prime
 
Gaussian primes are octogonally symmetrical on a real / imaginary Cartesian field. If a particular complex norm '''a² + b²''' is prime, thensince theaddition additiveis inversecommutative, '''b² + a²''' is also prime, as are the complex conjugates and multiplicativenegated inversesinstances of both.
