Exception: AE::Assertion
Overview
The Assertion class is simply a subclass of Exception that is used by AE as the default error raised when an assertion fails.
"The reserve of modern assertions is sometimes pushed to extremes,
in which the fear of being contradicted leads the writer to strip
himself of almost all sense and meaning."
-- Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)

Instance Method Details
- (Boolean) assertion?
Technically any object that affirmatively responds to #assertion? can be taken to be an Assertion. This makes it easier for various libraries to work together without having to depend upon a common Assertion base class.
