How can the code be modified to address the issue of incomplete character sequences during decoding?

When decoding a JSON string in PHP, incomplete character sequences can cause decoding errors. To address this issue, we can use the `JSON_PARTIAL_OUTPUT_ON_ERROR` option when decoding JSON strings. This option allows the decoder to return `null` instead of throwing an error when it encounters incomplete character sequences. 

// Decode JSON string with handling incomplete character sequences
$jsonString = '{"key": "value\u00"}'; // Incomplete character sequence
$data = json_decode($jsonString, true, 512, JSON_PARTIAL_OUTPUT_ON_ERROR);

if ($data === null && json_last_error() !== JSON_ERROR_NONE) {
    echo "Error decoding JSON: " . json_last_error_msg();
} else {
    print_r($data);
}
