NAME
       assert() - verify program assertion

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       This macro is useful for putting diagnostics into programs.  When it is
       executed, if expression is false (zero), prints:

       on the standard error output and aborts.	 In the error message, xyz  is
       the  name  of  the  source  file	 and nnn the source line number of the
       statement.

       Compiling with the preprocessor option (see cpp(1)), or with  the  pre‐
       processor  control  statement  ahead of the statement, stops assertions
       from being compiled into the program.

WARNINGS
       The expression argument used by in compatibility	 mode  cannot  contain
       string literals or double quotes without escapes.

SEE ALSO
       cpp(1), abort(3C), thread_safety(5).

STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
