This PR updates an assert statement that checks the bounds of a
string-slicing operation. The updated assertion provides more accurate
and informative error handling by specifically checking the relative
values of the indices and the string length.
The original assertion was essentially checking if Python's string
slicing was behaving as expected. However, it wasn't providing any
guarantees or useful information about the bounds i and j themselves.
The updated assertion checks that the indices used for slicing are
within the bounds of the string. It will throw an AssertionError if the
indices are out of bounds or if i > j, providing a more specific and
informative error.
