What will be the output of the program (when you run with the -ea option) ?

public static void main(String[] args)

int x = 0;
assert (x > 0) : "assertion failed"; /* Line 6 */
System.out.println("finished");
}
}

An assertion Error is thrown as normal giving the output "assertion failed". The word "finished"
is not printed (ensure you run with the -ea option)
Assertion failures are generally labeled in the stack trace with the file and line number from which
they were thrown, and also in this case with the error's detail message "assertion failed". The
detail message is supplied by the assert statement in line 6.
