Question

I am trying to create a php foreach statement that outputs different code for the first 5 iterations, and then does a different output for the rest.

I found this snippet, which does a break at a given limit, but how could I continue from the last iteration on another foreach loop? That’s probably not the best way to do it anyways.

 $i = 0;
foreach ($arr as $k => $v) {
    /* Do stuff */
    if (++$i == 2) break;
}

Is this possible? How would I go about it?

Thanks!

You can use array_slice for this:

foreach (array_slice($arr, 0, 5, true) as $k => $v) {
    /* Do stuff 1-5 */
}
foreach (array_slice($arr, 5, null, true) as $k => $v) {
    /* Do stuff 6-end */
}
