What are the best practices for handling errors in PHP code without using the "@" symbol?

When handling errors in PHP code without using the "@" symbol, it is important to use proper error handling techniques such as try-catch blocks or using the error_reporting function to set the desired error reporting level. This allows you to handle errors gracefully and provide meaningful error messages to the user without suppressing them.

// Set error reporting level to display all errors except notices
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// Example of using try-catch block to handle errors
try {
    // Code that may throw an error
    $result = 1 / 0;
} catch (Exception $e) {
    // Handle the error
    echo "An error occurred: " . $e->getMessage();
}
