Unless you are in the business of writing flight control software, OS kernels, or critical financial software, I don't think your own code will reach the standards you mention. The only way we get "correct under all conceivable scenarios" software is to have a large team with long time horizons and large funding working on a small piece of software. It is beyond an individual to reach that standard for anything beyond code at the function level.
