How can arrays and foreach() be utilized to improve the efficiency of PHP code like the one described in the forum thread?

The issue in the forum thread is that the PHP code is using nested loops to iterate over a multidimensional array, which can be inefficient. One way to improve efficiency is by using arrays and the foreach() function to iterate over the array elements directly. 

// Original inefficient code
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
    foreach ($value as $innerKey => $innerValue) {
        // Perform operations on $innerValue
    }
}

// Improved code using arrays and foreach()
foreach ($array as $value) {
    foreach ($value as $innerValue) {
        // Perform operations on $innerValue
    }
}
