Assertion is a check statement that must evaluate to true or it will abort
program's execution. It is useful during development/debugging:

    assert("there must be >3 arguments", sub { @args > 3 });

In production code, compilers ideally do not generate code for assertion
statements so they do not have any impact on runtime performance.

In the old days, you only have this alternative to do it in Perl:

    assert(...) if DEBUG;
