What are the advantages of using absolute paths in PHP scripts?

Using absolute paths in PHP scripts ensures that the script will always reference the correct file or directory regardless of the current working directory. This can prevent errors related to file paths when the script is executed from different locations. Absolute paths provide a clear and unambiguous way to specify file locations in the script.

// Using absolute path to include a file
include_once('/var/www/html/includes/config.php');
