      2 # better-assert
      3 
      4   Better c-style assertions using [callsite](https://github.com/visionmedia/callsite) for
      5   self-documenting failure messages.
      6 
      7 ## Installation
      8 
      9     $ npm install better-assert
     10 
     11 ## Example
     12 
     13  By default assertions are enabled, however the __NO_ASSERT__ environment variable 
     14  will deactivate them when truthy.
     15 
     16 ```js
     17 var assert = require('better-assert');
     18 
     19 test();
     20 
     21 function test() {
     22   var user = { name: 'tobi' };
     23   assert('tobi' == user.name);
     24   assert('number' == typeof user.age);
     25 }
     26 
     27 AssertionError: 'number' == typeof user.age
