      1. When creating a custom database connection class: In this example, I created a class to handle database connections using the MySQLi extension. The __construct method established a connection to the database when an instance of the class was created, and the __destruct method closed the connection when the instance was no longer needed. This ensured that the connection was properly closed and freed up resources when the script finished executing.
      2. When creating a custom logging class: In this example, I created a class to handle logging events to a file. The __construct method opened the log file when an instance of the class was created, and the __destruct method closed the file when the instance was no longer needed. This ensured that the file was properly closed and saved any changes when the script finished executing.

      In both of these cases, using the __destruct method allowed me to automatically close connections or files when the instances of the classes were no longer needed, without having to remember to manually close them in the rest of the code.
