Response:

In WordPress there is a constant called WP_DEBUG. It is often set in the wp-config.php file, which is loaded right at the start of processing. When it’s true then PHP Notices may be displayed to the user. These can cause all sorts of problem.

When false then they’re hidden. In a development environment, if you have a Notice tolerance level of zero then you’ll want to set it to true and hope to never see Notices. In a production environment best practices suggest you set it to false.
