+ Rank is additive on a Cartesian product::
+
+ sage: J1 = HadamardEJA(1)
+ sage: J2 = RealSymmetricEJA(2)
+ sage: J = cartesian_product([J1,J2])
+ sage: J1.rank.clear_cache()
+ sage: J2.rank.clear_cache()
+ sage: J.rank.clear_cache()
+ sage: J.rank()
+ 3
+ sage: J.rank() == J1.rank() + J2.rank()
+ True
+
+ The same rank computation works over the rationals, with whatever
+ basis you like::
+
+ sage: J1 = HadamardEJA(1, field=QQ, orthonormalize=False)
+ sage: J2 = RealSymmetricEJA(2, field=QQ, orthonormalize=False)
+ sage: J = cartesian_product([J1,J2])
+ sage: J1.rank.clear_cache()
+ sage: J2.rank.clear_cache()
+ sage: J.rank.clear_cache()
+ sage: J.rank()
+ 3
+ sage: J.rank() == J1.rank() + J2.rank()
+ True
+
+ The product algebra will be associative if and only if all of its
+ components are associative::
+
+ sage: J1 = HadamardEJA(2)
+ sage: J1.is_associative()
+ True
+ sage: J2 = HadamardEJA(3)
+ sage: J2.is_associative()
+ True
+ sage: J3 = RealSymmetricEJA(3)
+ sage: J3.is_associative()
+ False
+ sage: CP1 = cartesian_product([J1,J2])
+ sage: CP1.is_associative()
+ True
+ sage: CP2 = cartesian_product([J1,J3])
+ sage: CP2.is_associative()
+ False
