[c++] Remove First and Last Character C++

My BASIC interpreter chops beginning and ending quotes with

str->pop_back();
str->erase(str->begin());

Of course, I always expect well-formed BASIC style strings, so I will abort with failed assert if not:

assert(str->front() == '"' && str->back() == '"');

Just my two cents.
