    There are three input formats:

    - ``QuaternionAlgebra(a, b)``: quaternion algebra generated by ``i``, ``j``
      subject to `i^2 = a`, `j^2 = b`, `j \cdot i = -i \cdot j`.

    - ``QuaternionAlgebra(K, a, b)``: same as above but over a field ``K``.
      Here, ``a`` and ``b`` are nonzero elements of a field (``K``) of
      characteristic not 2, and we set `k = i \cdot j`.

    - ``QuaternionAlgebra(D)``: a rational quaternion algebra with
      discriminant ``D``, where `D > 1` is a squarefree integer.

    EXAMPLES:

    ``QuaternionAlgebra(a, b)`` - return quaternion algebra over the
    *smallest* field containing the nonzero elements ``a`` and ``b`` with
    generators ``i``, ``j``, ``k`` with `i^2=a`, `j^2=b` and `j \cdot i =
    -i \cdot j`::

        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(-2,-3)
        Quaternion Algebra (-2, -3) with base ring Rational Field
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(GF(5)(2), GF(5)(3))
        Quaternion Algebra (2, 3) with base ring Finite Field of size 5
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(2, GF(5)(3))
        Quaternion Algebra (2, 3) with base ring Finite Field of size 5
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(QQ[sqrt(2)](-1), -5)
        Quaternion Algebra (-1, -5) with base ring Number Field in sqrt2 with defining polynomial x^2 - 2
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(sqrt(-1), sqrt(-3))
        Quaternion Algebra (I, sqrt(-3)) with base ring Symbolic Ring
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(1r,1)
        Quaternion Algebra (1, 1) with base ring Rational Field

    Python ints, longs and floats may be passed to the
    ``QuaternionAlgebra(a, b)`` constructor, as may  all pairs of nonzero
    elements of a ring not of characteristic 2. The following tests address
    the issues raised in :trac:`10601`::

    ``QuaternionAlgebra(K, a, b)`` - return quaternion algebra over the
    field ``K`` with generators ``i``, ``j``, ``k`` with `i^2=a`, `j^2=b`
    and `i \cdot j = -j \cdot i`::

        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(QQ, -7, -21)
        Quaternion Algebra (-7, -21) with base ring Rational Field
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(QQ[sqrt(2)], -2,-3)
        Quaternion Algebra (-2, -3) with base ring Number Field in sqrt2 with defining polynomial x^2 - 2

    ``QuaternionAlgebra(D)`` - ``D`` is a squarefree integer; returns a
    rational quaternion algebra of discriminant ``D``::

        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(1)
        Quaternion Algebra (-1, 1) with base ring Rational Field
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(2)
        Quaternion Algebra (-1, -1) with base ring Rational Field
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(7)
        Quaternion Algebra (-1, -7) with base ring Rational Field
        sage: QuaternionAlgebra(2*3*5*7)
        Quaternion Algebra (-22, 210) with base ring Rational Field

    If the coefficients `a` and `b` in the definition of the quaternion
    algebra are not integral, then a slower generic type is used for
    arithmetic::

        sage: type(QuaternionAlgebra(-1,-3).0)
        <type 'sage.algebras.quatalg.quaternion_algebra_element.QuaternionAlgebraElement_rational_field'>
        sage: type(QuaternionAlgebra(-1,-3/2).0)
        <type 'sage.algebras.quatalg.quaternion_algebra_element.QuaternionAlgebraElement_generic'>

    Make sure caching is sane::

        sage: A = QuaternionAlgebra(2,3); A
        Quaternion Algebra (2, 3) with base ring Rational Field
        sage: B = QuaternionAlgebra(GF(5)(2),GF(5)(3)); B

def normalize_basis_at_p(e, p, B = lambda x,y: (x*y.conjugate()).reduced_trace()):
    r"""
    Computes a (at ``p``) normalized basis from the given basis ``e``
    of a `\ZZ`-module.

    The returned basis is (at ``p``) a `\ZZ_p` basis for the same
    module, and has the property that with respect to it the quadratic
    form induced by the bilinear form B is represented as a orthogonal
    sum of atomic forms multiplied by p-powers.

    If `p \neq 2` this means that the form is diagonal with respect to
    this basis.

    If `p = 2` there may be additional 2-dimensional subspaces on which
    the form is represented as `2^e (ax^2 + bxy + cx^2)` with
    `0 = v_2(b) = v_2(a) \leq v_2(c)`.

    INPUT:
        - ``e`` -- list; basis of a `\ZZ` module.
          WARNING: will be modified!

        - ``p`` -- prime for at which the basis should be normalized

        - ``B`` -- (default:
          ``lambda x,y: ((x*y).conjugate()).reduced_trace()``)
          a bilinear form with respect to which to normalize

    OUTPUT:

    - A list containing two-element tuples: The first element of
      each tuple is a basis element, the second the valuation of
      the orthogonal summand to which it belongs. The list is sorted
