What are common debugging practices for PHP scripts?

Common debugging practices for PHP scripts include using var_dump() or print_r() to display the contents of variables, checking for syntax errors, enabling error reporting with error_reporting(E_ALL), and using tools like Xdebug for more advanced debugging capabilities.

// Display the contents of a variable using var_dump()
$variable = "Hello, World!";
var_dump($variable);

// Enable error reporting to display all errors
error_reporting(E_ALL);

// Check for syntax errors in the code
if (condition) {
    // code block
}
