How can the arrow operator be effectively used to access object properties within an array in PHP?

To access object properties within an array in PHP, you can use the arrow operator (->) to access the object's properties after accessing the object within the array using square brackets ([]). This allows you to retrieve specific properties of an object stored within an array. Example:

// Define an array with objects
$users = [
    ['name' => 'John', 'age' => 30],
    ['name' => 'Jane', 'age' => 25]
];

// Access and display the name of the first user
echo $users[0]['name']; // Output: John

// Access and display the age of the second user
echo $users[1]['age']; // Output: 25
