I don't think so. Paul Rubin's square example was, I thought,
particularly instructive.

Unless, of course, you want to switch off such checking at runtime, as
you might when using a design-by-contract approach.

description, the use of an assert statement that might be compiled
away is not unreasonable; indeed, it certainly is so in the context of
design by contract.

As an alternative to Python, I'd suggest REALbasic. Its main
disadvantage is that it is not free. But you get a language, editor,
and two application frameworks in one package.

So I don't think we can count that paper as a suitable

the standard definitions are not self-contradictory this way.
