How can one ensure that variables like $errors are accessible on the first page load in PHP, even if they are empty initially?

To ensure that variables like $errors are accessible on the first page load in PHP, even if they are empty initially, you can initialize them with an empty value at the beginning of your script. This ensures that the variable exists and can be accessed throughout the script, even if no errors have been stored in it yet. 

<?php
$errors = []; // Initialize $errors as an empty array

// Your PHP code here

?>
