+Dafny is a tool that was created by Runstan Lino, which is a language
+that was designed specifically for the purposes of verification. The
+main idea is that you can have preconditions and postconditions that
+describe the functionality of your program. These are then proven
+automatically by dafny, which uses the implementation to try and prove
+the postcondition assuming that the precondition holds.
+
+This cannot always be the case though, and one can therefore help the
+theorem prover by adding assertions in different places.
