What are PHP superglobals? PHP सुपरग्लोबल्स क्या हैं?

Short Answer

When iterating over an associative array using a foreach loop, you use the $key => $value syntax. This allows you to access both the associative key (e.g., the string name) and its corresponding value simultaneously.

Detailed Explanation & Code Example

An associative array uses named keys that you assign to them rather than numeric indexes. A standard foreach loop can easily extract both.

$user = [
    "first_name" => "Prepiq",
    "role"       => "Admin",
    "status"     => "Active"
];

// Iterating over the array, capturing both key and value
foreach ($user as $key => $value) {
    // ucfirst() capitalizes the first letter of the key for display
    echo ucfirst(str_replace('_', ' ', $key)) . ": " . $value . "\n";
}

Expected Output:

First name: Prepiq
Role: Admin
Status: Active
