Example 2: assert syntax python

#The assert condition must always be True, else it will stop execution and return the error message in the second argument
assert 1==2 , "Not True" #returns 'Not True' as Assertion Error.

Example 3: assert keyword in python

The assert keyword is used when debugging code.

The assert keyword lets you test if a condition in your code returns 
True, if not, the program will raise an AssertionError.

You can write a message to be written if the code returns False, check 
the example below.

x = "hello"

#if condition returns False, AssertionError is raised:
assert x == "goodbye", "x should be 'hello'"
