How does the fetch_object function work in PHP and what does it return?

The fetch_object function in PHP is used to retrieve the next row from a result set as an object. It returns an object with property names that correspond to the column names in the result set. To use fetch_object, you first need to execute a query using a database connection and then fetch the results row by row.

// Assuming $mysqli is a valid MySQLi database connection
$query = $mysqli->query("SELECT * FROM users");

while ($row = $query->fetch_object()) {
    // Access object properties like $row->id, $row->name, etc.
    // Do something with the data
}
