assert在python_在Python中使用assert的例子？

I've read about when to use assert vs. exceptions, but I'm still not "getting it". It seems like whenever I think I'm in a situation where I should use assert, later on in development I find that I'm "looking before I leap" to make sure the assert doesn't fail when I call the function. Since there's another Python idiom about preferring to use try-except, I generally end up ditching the assert and throwing an exception instead. I have yet to find a place where it seems right to use an assert. Can anyone come up with some good examples?

A good guideline is using assert when its triggering means a bug in your code. When your code assumes something and acts upon the assumption, it's recommended to protect this assumption with an assert. This assert failing means your assumption isn't correct, which means your code isn't correct.
