Error and Exception Handling

Summary

The topics covered in this chapter touch upon many of the core error-handling practices used in today’s programming industry. While the implementation of such features unfortunately remains more preference than policy, the introduction of capabilities such as logging and error handling has contributed substantially to the ability of programmers to detect and respond to otherwise unforeseen problems in their code.

In the next chapter, we’ll take an in-depth look at PHP’s string-parsing capabilities, covering the language’s powerful regular expression features, and offering insight into many of the powerful string-manipulation functions.
