Please help us improve it! == Use {{assert}} You can use {{assert}} with an expression that should always evaluate to true. For example, <enscript highlight="scheme"> (define (string-first str) (assert (string? str)) (string-ref str 0)) </enscript> If the above function is called with, say, a number, you'll get the following error: Error: assertion failed: (string? str) Note that this doesn't always point to the function where the assertion failed. If you have multiple {{(string? str)}} assertions, you'll have to hunt it down. For this reason, [[alejandro forero cuervo|I]] include the function's name in the assertion: <enscript highlight="scheme"> (define (string-first str) (assert (and 'string-first (string? str))) (string-ref str 0)) </enscript> In this case the error for the failed assertion will include the function's name, making it easier to find where it occurred. Of course, you will still need to find the caller... Description of your changes:
