What are the best practices for working with Zend Framework DB results in PHP, as objects or arrays?

When working with Zend Framework DB results in PHP, it is generally recommended to work with objects rather than arrays for better readability and maintainability of the code. Objects provide a more structured way to access and manipulate data compared to arrays. To work with Zend Framework DB results as objects, you can use the fetchObject() method provided by Zend_Db_Select.

// Assuming $dbAdapter is an instance of Zend_Db_Adapter
$select = $dbAdapter->select()
                   ->from('table_name');

$results = $dbAdapter->query($select)->fetchObject();
foreach ($results as $result) {
    // Access properties of the object
    echo $result->column_name;
}
