Question

I have been using php for a while but haven’t taken the time to learn methods that will help test code, debug and investigate problems.

A recently learnt print_r() which has really helped me in displaying array data. If I had have known this before, my coding life would have been much easier.

I would like to ask what help functions the members of stackoverflow use regularly for their php coding.

Answer 1

• print_r()
• var_dump()
• ob_start() & cie.
• exit()
• error_reporting()
• debug_backtrace()
• debug_print_backtrace()
• and more generally some of these functions.
• and why not some of these
