How can SQL queries with fewer rows than the specified LIMIT be handled in PHP?

When executing a SQL query with a LIMIT clause in PHP, the result set may contain fewer rows than the specified limit. To handle this situation, you can check the number of rows returned by the query and adjust your logic accordingly. One approach is to use a loop to fetch each row until there are no more results left. 

// Execute SQL query with LIMIT clause
$query = "SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 10";
$result = mysqli_query($connection, $query);

// Check if there are rows returned
if(mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
    // Fetch and process each row
    while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
        // Process the row data
    }
} else {
    echo "No results found.";
}
