%%% Purpose : Assert macro


%% ?ASSERT/2 - will simply return true if the first argument evaluates to true
%%    otherwise it will exit and output (via the error logger) the
%%    second string
%%
%% Arguments:
%%   Flag	Expression that should evalueate to true or false
%%   String	String to return as a part of the exit reason as well
%%   		be to be sent to the error logger.
%%
%% Returns:
%%   true	If the Flag expression evaluates to true
%%   
%% Exits:
%%   {'EXIT', {assertion_failed, String}}
%%  		If the Flag expression evaluates to something other than
%%		true.
%%
%% Usage notes:
%%   Please note that the Flag argument must be a valid expression that 
%%   evaluates to true.
%%
%%   Also, avoid any side effects in the Flag, as everything performed
%%   within the scope of the ?ASSERT macro will not be present when
%%   the code is not compiled with the debug_on flag.
%%
%%   Side effects include the binding of a variable, sending of a
%%   message, etc.
