.TH ASSERT 3X
.CT 2 debug_tune
.SH NAME
assert \(mi assertion checking
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <assert.h>
.PP

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
.I Assert
is a macro that indicates
.I expression
is expected to be nonzero at this point in the program.
It causes an

is zero.
Compiling with the
.IR cc (1)
option
.B -DNDEBUG
effectively makes the expression always nonzero.

where
.I f
is the source file and
.I n
the source line number
of the
