What are some best practices for handling and displaying data from a CSV file in PHP?

When handling and displaying data from a CSV file in PHP, it is important to properly parse the CSV file, loop through each row, and display the data in a structured format. One common approach is to use the fgetcsv() function to read the CSV file line by line and explode each row into an array of values. 

<?php
// Open the CSV file for reading
$csvFile = fopen('data.csv', 'r');

// Loop through each row in the CSV file
while (($data = fgetcsv($csvFile)) !== false) {
    // Display the data from each row
    echo '<ul>';
    foreach ($data as $value) {
        echo '<li>' . $value . '</li>';
    }
    echo '</ul>';
}

// Close the CSV file
fclose($csvFile);
?>
