How can sessions be utilized to pass variables between multiple PHP files in a seamless manner?

Sessions can be utilized to pass variables between multiple PHP files by storing the variables in the $_SESSION superglobal array. This allows the variables to be accessed across different pages within the same session. To use sessions, you need to start the session at the beginning of each PHP file where you want to access the variables, and then set or retrieve the variables using $_SESSION.

// File 1: set_session_var.php
session_start();
$_SESSION['username'] = 'John';

// File 2: get_session_var.php
session_start();
echo $_SESSION['username']; // Output: John
