Multiple index variables in PHP foreach loop

Question

Is it possible to have a foreach loop in PHP with multiple "index" variables, akin to the following (which doesn't use correct syntax)?

foreach ($courses as $course, $sections as $section) 

If not, is there a good way to achieve the same result?

Answer 1

to achieve just that result you could do

foreach (array_combine($courses, $sections) as $course => $section) 

but that only works for two arrays

Answer 2

If both the arrays are of the same size you can use a for loop as:

for($i=0, $count = count($courses);$i<$count;$i++) {  $course  = $courses[$i];  $section = $sections[$i]; }
