You wanna take a look at Hoare Logic:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoare_logic

Then, you can peek Weakest precondiction calculus:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predicate_transformer_semantics

And if you're brave, Separation logic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_logic

Oh, and if you still some more spare time: Rely/Guarantee. :)

Hope it helps.

Bart: Look at me, I'm a grad student, I'm 30 years old and I made $600
dollars last year.
Marge: Bart! Don't make fun of grad students, they just made a terrible
