How can a PHP script be automatically updated or refreshed at regular intervals without manual intervention?

One way to automatically update or refresh a PHP script at regular intervals without manual intervention is by using a cron job. By setting up a cron job on the server to run the PHP script at specified intervals, you can ensure that the script is updated or refreshed as needed without any manual intervention.
