How does the new code snippet differ from the original code in terms of functionality?

The new code snippet differs from the original code in terms of functionality because it includes proper error handling using try-catch blocks to catch any exceptions that may occur during the execution of the code. This ensures that any errors are gracefully handled without causing the script to terminate abruptly.

try {
    // Code that may throw an exception
    $result = someFunction();
    echo $result;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo 'An error occurred: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
