How can the use of OOP and procedural programming affect mysqli functions in PHP?

When using OOP and procedural programming together in PHP, it can lead to conflicts in how mysqli functions are called and utilized. To avoid this, it is recommended to stick to one programming paradigm consistently throughout your codebase. If you choose to use OOP for database interactions, make sure to create mysqli objects and use object-oriented methods for querying the database. 

// Example of using OOP for mysqli functions in PHP
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "username", "password", "database");

if ($mysqli->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $mysqli->connect_error);
}

$result = $mysqli->query("SELECT * FROM table");

while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
    // Process the data
}

$mysqli->close();
