How can PHP beginners limit the data retrieved from a database to a specific range of IDs?

To limit the data retrieved from a database to a specific range of IDs, beginners can use the SQL `IN` clause in their query along with an array of IDs they want to retrieve. This allows them to specify the range of IDs they are interested in and fetch only the corresponding records from the database. 

// Array of IDs to retrieve
$ids = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

// Construct SQL query with IN clause
$query = "SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE id IN (" . implode(',', $ids) . ")";

// Execute the query and fetch the results
$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);

// Loop through the results and display or process them as needed
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
    // Display or process each row
}
