<para>
<function>assert</function> will check the given
<parameter>assertion</parameter> and take appropriate
action if its result is <literal>false</literal>.
</para>
<para>
If the <parameter>assertion</parameter> is given as a string it
will be evaluated as PHP code by <function>assert</function>.
The advantages of a string <parameter>assertion</parameter>
are less overhead when assertion checking is off and messages
containing the <parameter>assertion</parameter> expression when
an assertion failes.
</para>
<para>
Assertion should be used as a debugging feature only. You may
use them for sanity-checks that test for conditions that should
always be true and that indicate some programming errors if not
or to check for the presence of certain features like extension
functions or certain system limits and features.
</para>
<para>
Assertions should not be used for normal runtime operations
like input parameter checks. As a rule of thumb your code
should always be able to work correct if assertion checking
is not activated.
</para>
<para>
The behavior of <function>assert</function> may be configured
by <function>assert_options</function> or by .ini-settings
described in that functions manual page.

<para>
This function prints out the credits listing the PHP developers,
modules, etc. It generates the appropriate HTML codes to insert
the information in a page. A parameter indicating what will be
printed (a pre-defined constant flag, see table below) needs
to be passed. For example to print the general credits, you will
use somewhere in your code:
<informalexample>
<programlisting role="php">
...
phpcredits(CREDITS_GENERAL);
...
</programlisting>
</informalexample>
And if you want to print the core developers and the documentation
group, in a page of its own, you will use:
<informalexample>
<programlisting role="php">
&lt;?php
phpcredits(CREDITS_GROUP + CREDITS_DOCS + CREDITS_FULLPAGE);
?&gt;
</programlisting>
</informalexample>
And if you feel like embedding all the credits in your page, then
code like the one below will do it:
<informalexample>
<programlisting role="php">
&lt;html&gt;
&lt;head&gt;
&lt;title&gt;My credits page&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;
&lt;body&gt;
&lt;?php
// some code of your own
phpcredits(CREDITS_ALL + CREDITS_FULLPAGE);

<simpara>
Set the number of seconds a script is allowed to run. If this is
reached, the script returns a fatal error. The default limit is
30 seconds or, if it exists, the max_execution_time value defined
in the <link linkend="configuration.file">configuration
file</link>. If seconds is set to zero, no time limit is
imposed.
</simpara>
<simpara>
When called, <function>set_time_limit</function> restarts the
timeout counter from zero. In other words, if the timeout is the
default 30 seconds, and 25 seconds into script execution a call
such as set_time_limit(20) is made, the script will run for a
total of 45 seconds before timing out.
</simpara>
<simpara>
Note that <function>set_time_limit</function> has no effect when
PHP is running in safe mode. There is no workaround other than
turning off safe mode or changing the time limit in the <link
linkend="configuration.file">configuration file</link>.
