PHP - Grab the first element using a foreach

Question

Wondering what would be a good method to get the first iteration on a foreach loop. I want to do something different on the first iteration.

Is a conditional our b

Answer 1

Yes, if you are not able to go through the object in a different way (a normal for loop), just use a conditional in this case:

$first = true;
foreach ( $obj as $value )
{
    if ( $first )
    {
        // do something
        $first = false;
    }
    else
    {
        // do something
    }

    // do something
}
