The compiler internally regards the assert function as "does not return". So do 
whatever you want in it, as long as you do not return normally from it. That 
means exit the program or throw something.

But if you throw a catchable exception, what if it gets caught? Your program is 
now in an invalid state. I wouldn't do that.
