I think adding x+1 at name attribute is much better than adding a empty space for the prgm related to

Instead of putting an empty element into the array, just start like this:
$months = [ 1 => "January", "February", "March" ... ]
It starts the element key at One instead of Zero and increments it by 1 for every upcoming element.

I know this video was related to ForLoops specifically, BUT, since once of the examples was how to generate sequential lists, specifically one with months of the year, i though it would be helpful to show a different way of doing it which is more advanced, BUT simpler and a lot more dynamic...

$months = range(1, 12); // This simple function generates an indexed array with values starting with 1 and ending with 12...
This is the output of $months...
Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
[3] => 4
[4] => 5
[5] => 6
[6] => 7
[7] => 8
[8] => 9
[9] => 10
[10] => 11
[11] => 12
)

foreach($months as $month)
{
$monthName = date("F", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, 10)); // This function DATE() creates and Formats a date... since we dont care about an actual date but only a partial of a date, specifically the name of the month based on its numeric representation, we can generate a partial DATE containing the NAME of the month only... thats what "F" flag represents...

echo "Month #{$month} is known as {$monthName} <br>"; // Here is simply substitutes values for variables as the loop is processed...
}

This is the output of the loop:
---
Month #1 is known as January
Month #2 is known as February
Month #3 is known as March
Month #4 is known as April
Month #5 is known as May
Month #6 is known as June
Month #7 is known as July
Month #8 is known as August
Month #9 is known as September
Month #10 is known as October
Month #11 is known as November
Month #12 is known as December
---

This is a much more efficient way to generate lists... you can wrap this code in a function and reuse it wherever you have forms with month selects or whatever... You can easily extend this to be multi lingual, etc...

sir an awosome lecture to play with for loop...
Kindly make a lecture on how to play with mysqli queries...that would be great!!!

[MrGilly]

Instead of doing a FOR loop for the months array you can just use a for each loop.

I have the following code and I am trying to give the user a sticker everytime they enter something into the database.. This does work but how would I reset the counter? if they have already received 5 stickers and I want the sticker to start again at the beginning of a page, I tried to do something like this but it keeps looping...

for ($i = 1; $i<= $resultCheck; $i++) {

echo '<div class="star1">
<i class="fas fa-star fa-10x"></i></div>';

if ($i == 5 ) {
$i =0;
