How does the die() function interact with include() statements in PHP scripts?

The die() function in PHP terminates the script and outputs a message. When used in conjunction with include() statements, the die() function can be used to handle errors or conditions where the included file cannot be found or loaded. By checking the return value of the include() function and using die() to display an error message, you can gracefully handle these situations in your PHP scripts. 

<?php
// Attempt to include a file
if (!include('file.php')) {
    die('Error: Unable to include file.php');
}

// Code that relies on file.php being included
?>
