Question

So I have an array like this:

foreach($obj as $element){
//do something
}

But If the array contains more than 50 elements (it is usually 100) I only want to loop through the first 50 of them, and then break the loop.

Answer 1

Works for any array, not only for those with numeric keys 0, 1, ...:

$i = 0;
foreach ($obj as $element) {
    // do something
    if (++$i == 50) {
        break;
    }
}
