Question

Hi all i’m a bit stuck and need some help.
I have a query which returns the following

Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
    (
        [id] => 1
        [username] => Joe Blogs
        [user_number] => JB222
        [email] => [e-mail]
        [job_title] => Teacher
        [contractor] => Direct Hire
        [campus] => Male Humanities
        [role] => Teacher
        [section_number] => 11111 | 213312 | 232121 | 432231
        [stid] => 89,91,95,94
        [classroom] => 2621,1329,1428,3123
        [subject] => English | Physics | English | Maths
    )

)

I need to be able to break this apart so i can loop through the stid,section,classroom and subjects as part of a nested loop.
Id like to join the section and classroom together and keep the stid separate so i can use it in a link. I also want to keep the class separate.

                                     -----------------------------------------------
                                     |    sections    |  classroom   |   Teacher    |
                                     -----------------------------------------------
this would be a link with stid 89 -> | English 11111  |    2621      |  Joe Blogs   |
this would be a link with stid 91 -> | Physics 213312 |    1329      |              |
                                     | English 232121 |    1428      |              |
                                     | Maths   432231 |    3123      |              |
                                     -----------------------------------------------

I’ve tried different things and can’t get them to work. Below is what i tried but i could work out how to get each stid as a value in the link. I also tried to to put an if statement to say N/A if the class was empty but that wasn’t working either.

OLD CODE

<ul>

@if ( empty($teacher->subject) )
N/A 
@else   
 <?php 
     $sections = explode(' | ',$teacher->section_number );
 $subjects = explode(' | ',$teacher->subject);  
 $data = array_combine($sections,$subjects); ?>

      @foreach ( $data as $section=>$class)     
      <li>{{ $section . " - " .$class }}</li>
      @endforeach

@endif

</ul>
</td>
<td> 
<ul>

 <?php $classrooms = explode(',',$teacher->classroom); ?>
@foreach ( $classrooms as $room)    
    <li>{{ $room }}</li>
@endforeach

</ul>

Any help would be appreciated. especially with some explanation as to where i went wrong.
Thanks
