## Produces an error if the condition is not met. @code{assert} can be
## called in three different ways.

## @itemx assert (@var{cond}, @var{errmsg}, @dots{})
## @itemx assert (@var{cond}, @var{msg_id}, @var{errmsg}, @dots{})
## Called with a single argument @var{cond}, @code{assert} produces an
## error if @var{cond} is zero. If called with a single argument a
## generic error message. With more than one argument, the additional
## arguments are passed to the @code{error} function.
##
## @item assert (@var{observed}, @var{expected})
## Produce an error if observed is not the same as expected. Note that 
## observed and expected can be strings, scalars, vectors, matrices, 
## lists or structures.
##
## @item assert(@var{observed}, @var{expected}, @var{tol})
## Accept a tolerance when comparing numbers. 
## If @var{tol} is positive use it as an absolute tolerance, will produce an error if
## @code{abs(@var{observed} - @var{expected}) > abs(@var{tol})}.
## If @var{tol} is negative use it as a relative tolerance, will produce an error if
## @code{abs(@var{observed} - @var{expected}) > abs(@var{tol} * @var{expected})}.
## If @var{expected} is zero @var{tol} will always be used as an absolute tolerance.

## FIXME: Output throttling: don't print out the entire 100x100 matrix,
## but instead give a summary; don't print out the whole list, just
## say what the first different element is, etc.  To do this, make
## the message generation type specific.
