How to Change Object Values in PHP Using foreach Loop

PHP provides developers with various tools and techniques to manipulate data structures such as arrays and objects. However, issues can arise when updating values in objects nested within arrays. In this post, we will explore a specific problem encountered while using a PHP foreach loop to modify object properties. We will also delve into the solution, ensuring that you achieve the expected results easily.

The Problem

Consider the following scenario where you have two objects wrapped in an array:

You also have another associative array containing new values for the names associated with these objects:

When you attempt to update the names in the first array using a foreach loop, you might end up with unexpected output, like this:

As you can see, both objects display the name test 25 instead of showing John Nathan for the first object. Let's figure out how to solve this issue.

The Solution

The problem arises due to the inner loop not correctly checking the keys between the two arrays. Here’s how we can fix it step-by-step:

Step 1: Setup the Objects and Arrays

Ensure you have your original objects and arrays set up correctly:

Conclusion

By implementing a nested foreach loop, we can effectively update the properties of objects within an array based on the values provided in another array. This approach gives you the flexibility to use associative arrays in conjunction with objects, making data manipulation in PHP straightforward and error-free.

Now you should see the desired output:
