Question

I have a PHP object like below and all I want to know whats the the easiest way to get a count of objects where the property ‘typeId’ = 3

Array
(
    [0] => ABC Object
        (
            [id] => 13
            [typeId] => 3
            [sortOrder] => 0
        )
    [1] => ABC Object
        (
            [id] => 12
            [typeId] => 2
            [sortOrder] => 0
        )
    [2] => ABC Object
        (
            [id] => 14
            [typeId] => 4
            [sortOrder] => 0
        )
    [3] => ABC Object
        (
            [id] => 15
            [typeId] => 3
            [sortOrder] => 0
        )
)

Answer 1

A simple foreach counter should do:

$count = 0;
foreach ($array as $object) {
    if ($object->typeId == 3) $count++;
}

No need to over complicate things
