/**
 * Static convenience methods that serve the same purpose as Java language
 * <a href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/language/assert.html">
 * assertions</a>, except that they are always enabled. These methods should be used instead of Java
 * assertions whenever there is a chance the check may fail "in real life". Example: <pre>   {@code
 *
 *   Bill bill = remoteService.getLastUnpaidBill();
 *
 *   // In case bug 12345 happens again we'd rather just die
 *   Verify.verify(bill.status() == Status.UNPAID,
 *       "Unexpected bill status: %s", bill.status());}</pre>
 *
 * <h3>Comparison to alternatives</h3>
 *
 * <p><b>Note:</b> In some cases the differences explained below can be subtle. When it's unclear
 * which approach to use, <b>don't worry</b> too much about it; just pick something that seems
 * reasonable and it will be fine.
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>If checking whether the <i>caller</i> has violated your method or constructor's contract
 *     (such as by passing an invalid argument), use the utilities of the {@link Preconditions}
 *     class instead.
 *
 * <li>If checking an <i>impossible</i> condition (which <i>cannot</i> happen unless your own class
 *     or its <i>trusted</i> dependencies is badly broken), this is what ordinary Java assertions
 *     are for. Note that assertions are not enabled by default; they are essentially considered
 *     "compiled comments."
 *
 * <li>An explicit {@code if/throw} (as illustrated below) is always acceptable; we still recommend
 *     using our {@link VerifyException} exception type. Throwing a plain {@link RuntimeException}
 *     is frowned upon.
 *
 * <li>Use of {@link java.util.Objects#requireNonNull(Object)} is generally discouraged, since
 *     {@link #verifyNotNull(Object)} and {@link Preconditions#checkNotNull(Object)} perform the
 *     same function with more clarity.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h3>Warning about performance</h3>
 *
 * <p>Remember that parameter values for message construction must all be computed eagerly, and
 * autoboxing and varargs array creation may happen as well, even when the verification succeeds and
 * the message ends up unneeded. Performance-sensitive verification checks should continue to use
 * usual form: <pre>   {@code
 *
 *   Bill bill = remoteService.getLastUnpaidBill();
 *   if (bill.status() != Status.UNPAID) {
 *     throw new VerifyException("Unexpected bill status: " + bill.status());
 *   }}</pre>
 *
 * <h3>Only {@code %s} is supported</h3>
 *
 * <p>As with {@link Preconditions} error message template strings, only the {@code "%s"} specifier
 * is supported, not the full range of {@link java.util.Formatter} specifiers. However, note that
 * if the number of arguments does not match the number of occurrences of {@code "%s"} in the
 * format string, {@code Verify} will still behave as expected, and will still include all argument
 * values in the error message; the message will simply not be formatted exactly as intended.
 *
 * <h3>More information</h3>
 *
 * See
 * <a href="https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/ConditionalFailuresExplained">Conditional
 * failures explained</a> in the Guava User Guide for advice on when this class should be used.
 *
 * @since 17.0
