What are alternative solutions to storing loops in variables in PHP?

Storing loops in variables in PHP can sometimes lead to confusion or unnecessary complexity in code. One alternative solution is to use functions to encapsulate the logic within the loop and call the function whenever the loop needs to be executed.

// Using functions to encapsulate loop logic

function processLoop($start, $end) {
    for ($i = $start; $i <= $end; $i++) {
        // Loop logic here
        echo $i . "<br>";
    }
}

// Call the function whenever the loop needs to be executed
processLoop(1, 5);
processLoop(10, 15);
