How can PHP errors be converted into Exceptions for better error handling in code?

PHP errors can be converted into Exceptions for better error handling in code by using the set_error_handler function to set a custom error handler that converts errors into Exceptions. This allows you to catch and handle errors using try-catch blocks, making it easier to manage and log errors in your code. 

// Custom error handler function to convert errors into Exceptions
function errorHandler($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline) {
    throw new ErrorException($errstr, 0, $errno, $errfile, $errline);
}

// Set the custom error handler
set_error_handler('errorHandler');

// Example code that may throw an error
try {
    // Code that may cause an error
    $result = 1 / 0;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    // Handle the error
    echo 'Caught exception: ', $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}
