What debugging methods have you tried so far to identify the issue?

Issue: The PHP code is not displaying the expected output due to a syntax error or logical mistake in the code. Debugging method: 1. Check for syntax errors by running the code through a syntax checker. 2. Use print_r() or var_dump() to inspect the values of variables and arrays at different points in the code. 3. Step through the code using breakpoints or echo statements to identify where the issue occurs. 

<?php
// Code snippet with debugging methods implemented

// Check for syntax errors
// Use a syntax checker like PHP Code Sniffer
// Example: phpcs /path/to/your/file.php

// Use print_r() to inspect variable values
$variable = "value";
print_r($variable);

// Step through the code with echo statements
echo "Before if statement";
if ($condition) {
    echo "Inside if statement";
} else {
    echo "Inside else statement";
}
echo "After if statement";
?>
