assert a debugging tool

int i,j;

    for(i=0;i<=10;i++)

    {

    j+=5;

    assert(i<5);

    }

Answer:

Runtime error: Abnormal program termination.

             assert failed (i<5), <file name>,<line number>

Explanation:

asserts are used during debugging to make sure that certain conditions are satisfied. If assertion fails, the program will terminate reporting the same. After debugging use,

    #undef NDEBUG

and this will disable all the assertions from the source code. Assertion

is a good debugging tool to make use of.
