How can JSON data be decoded and accessed in PHP for processing?

To decode and access JSON data in PHP for processing, you can use the `json_decode()` function to convert the JSON string into a PHP variable. You can then access the data by treating the decoded JSON as an associative array. 

// Sample JSON data
$jsonData = '{"name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York"}';

// Decode the JSON data
$decodedData = json_decode($jsonData, true);

// Access the decoded data
echo "Name: " . $decodedData['name'] . "<br>";
echo "Age: " . $decodedData['age'] . "<br>";
echo "City: " . $decodedData['city'];
