Hi,

I’m looking on the defenition of the ‘assert’ command in the assert.h file.
I can’t figure out what is the meaning of the first parameter.

Any ideas?

assert() takes one parameter and only one parameter – the parameter
happens to be something that returns true or false, generally some
conditional.

e.g.
/* x can never be 0 */
assert( (x != 0 ) );
y = 5/x;
