Answer : Option B
Explanation :
Adding an assertion statement to a switch statement that previously had no default case is considered an excellent use of the assert mechanism.
Option A is incorrect because only Java expressions that return a value can be used. For instance, a method that returns void is illegal.
Option C is incorrect because the expression after the colon must have a value.
Option D is incorrect because assertions throw errors and not exceptions, and assertion errors do cause program termination and should not be handled.
