All these quotes are taken from Dan site, in true/false pattern.
But I want to know what it is and how can we identify by seeing the code that assert has been used as to check control flow invairant/postcondition/precondition/class variant/internal variant
can anyone explain the above thing with coding? Whether assertion can be used to check control flow invariant, postcondition and precondition (all the three condition I don't know)
pls explain

The assert statement is being used to check a control-flow invariant to verify that the control flow never reaches a point in the program.
The assert statement is being used to check a class invariant--something that must be true about each instance of the class
The assert statement is being used to check an internal invariant--something that the programmer assumes to be true at a particular point in the program
The assert statements are being used to check a precondition--something that must be true when the method is invoked.
The assert statement is being used to check a postcondition--something that must be true when the method completes successfully.
