How can PHP developers efficiently iterate over an array to populate a select box with values from a database?

To efficiently iterate over an array to populate a select box with values from a database, PHP developers can use a foreach loop to loop through the array of values retrieved from the database query. Within the loop, each value can be used to dynamically create an option element for the select box. 

<select name="select_box">
<?php
// Assuming $values is an array of values retrieved from the database
foreach ($values as $value) {
    echo "<option value='" . $value['id'] . "'>" . $value['name'] . "</option>";
}
?>
</select>
