NAME
       assert.h - verify program assertion



SYNOPSIS
       #include <assert.h>



DESCRIPTION
       The  <assert.h>  header  shall define the assert() macro.  It refers to
       the macro NDEBUG which is not defined  in  the  header.  If  NDEBUG  is
       defined  as  a  macro  name  before  the  inclusion of this header, the
       assert() macro shall be defined simply as:


              #define assert(ignore)((void) 0)

       Otherwise, the macro behaves as described in assert().

       The assert() macro shall be redefined according to the current state of
       NDEBUG each time <assert.h> is included.

       The  assert() macro shall be implemented as a macro, not as a function.
       If the macro definition is suppressed in  order  to  access  an  actual
       function, the behavior is undefined.
