How can the error "Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method Database::prepare()" be resolved in PHP?

The error "Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method Database::prepare()" occurs when the method prepare() is called on an object of the Database class, but the method is not defined within the class. To resolve this issue, you need to make sure that the prepare() method is defined within the Database class or use a different method for preparing queries, such as PDO prepare().

// Define the prepare() method within the Database class
class Database {
    public function prepare($query) {
        // Implementation of the prepare method
    }
}

// Example of how to use the prepare() method
$database = new Database();
$query = "SELECT * FROM table";
$statement = $database->prepare($query);
