/**
 * <p>An ExceptionConditionViolation is the means by which Toryt Contracts tells developers that it detected that an
 *   exception condition was violated when a contract function was called. The implementation of the contract function
 *   that was called, was executed and threw an exception, but the exception or the resulting state did not
 *   conform.</p>
 *
 * <p>If the exception condition itself is correct, this is a programming error on the part of the implementation.
 *   One should assume the system is now in an undefined state.</p>
 *
 * <p>The developer wants to know</p>
 * <ul>
 *   <li>where the contract function was called in source code,</li>
 *   <li>what the arguments were of the instance of the call, at the time of the call (old),</li>
 *   <li>what the result of the call is, and what the state is of all relevant objects is, after the call, and</li>
 *   <li>which exception condition was violated in source code (which implies knowing what contract it is a
 *     part of).</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>The state of the relevant objects after the call is a difficult subject, since we should assume the system
 *   is in an undefined state. Retrieving the state might not be possible, because invariants and preconditions
 *   will no longer be guaranteed.</p>
 *
 * @constructor
 * @param {Function} contractFunction - The contract function that reports this violation
 * @param {Function} condition        - The condition that was violated
 * @param            self             - The <code>this</code> that <code>contractFunction</code> was called on
 * @param {Array} args
 *                The arguments with which the contract function that failed, was called, extended with the
 *                thrown exception, and the contract function, bound to the <code>this</code>
 *                it was called on. The bound contract function is always the last entry. The thrown exception
 *                is always the second-to-last entry.
