Thanks for sharing Mike. A great explanation of a process I had not heard of before but felt similar to Bertrand Meyer's Design by Contract in Software Engineering where our software is equiped with pre-conditions, post-conditions and invariants. They also go a long way to documenting what our software does.

Design by Contract in software engineering aligns with the Poka-Yoke design concept by emphasising clear specifications, error prevention at the source, contract violation detection, and proactive design to enhance the reliability and robustness of software components and systems. Both approaches share the goal of reducing errors and defects by addressing them early in the development or operational process.
