How can the use of multiple redirect('home') statements in PHP code lead to a never-ending redirection loop?

When multiple redirect('home') statements are used in PHP code, it can lead to a never-ending redirection loop because each redirect sends the user back to the same 'home' page, triggering another redirect in an infinite loop. To solve this issue, you can use a conditional check to ensure that the redirection only occurs once. 

<?php
// Check if the user is not already on the 'home' page before redirecting
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] != '/home') {
    header('Location: /home');
    exit();
}
?>
