I'm working on a PHP homework task that requires connecting to a MySQL database. However, I'm having trouble establishing the connection. I've checked my credentials multiple times, but I keep getting connection errors. Could someone walk me through the correct procedure for setting up a database connection in PHP? What are some common mistakes to watch out for?

Connecting to a MySQL database in PHP can be a bit tricky, especially if you're new to it. When setting up the connection, make sure to double-check your credentials, including the hostname, username, password, and database name. It's also essential to ensure that your PHP script is running on the same server as the MySQL server or configure the connection settings correctly for remote access. If you're still having trouble, consider reviewing the official PHP documentation or seeking help from online forums or communities. Also you can use help from special services like https://assigncode.com/ to solve your problem faster.
