assert(blah blah) in the C code base

Greetings! I'm working on Issue19995, and I'm seeing stuff like this: assert(PyLong_Check(val)); My question is: Are these asserts in final production code? My possible scenarios are: - the assert isn't in place - the assert isn't working correctly - PyLong_Check isn't working correctly - the non-ints are being converted before the function containing the assert is called The fourth possibility is the most likely, but since I don't know how assert() works in C I can't be sure. Any quick pointers? -- ~Ethan~
