How can PHP code stored in a database be executed?

PHP code stored in a database can be executed by retrieving the code from the database and using the `eval()` function to evaluate it as PHP code. However, this approach can be risky as it opens up security vulnerabilities, such as code injection attacks. It is generally recommended to avoid storing and executing PHP code from a database whenever possible. 

// Retrieve PHP code from the database
$phpCode = "echo 'Hello, World!';";

// Execute the PHP code using eval() function
eval($phpCode);
