Most programming languages have assertions: statements that do nothing if the value they assert is true, but cause a fatal error if not. They're commonly used as a form of run-time debugging aid to catch very odd situations. A typical assert might look like assert( foo != bar ); in C and result in a fatal error if foo and bar are the same
