I am debugging with breakpoints and I realize the assert call? I thought it was only for unit tests. What does it do more than breakpoint? Since I can breakpoint, why should I use Assert?

In a debug compilation,
Asserttakes in a Boolean condition as a parameter, and shows the error dialog if the condition is false. The program proceeds without any interruption if the condition is true.If you compile in Release, all
Debug.Assert‘s are automatically left out.
