What are the best practices for dynamically coloring table rows based on specific conditions in PHP?

When dynamically coloring table rows based on specific conditions in PHP, the best practice is to use a conditional statement within the loop that generates the table rows. Within the conditional statement, you can apply a CSS class to the table row based on the specific condition being met. This allows for easy styling of the table rows based on the conditions. 

<table>
    <?php
    $data = [
        ['name' => 'John', 'age' => 25],
        ['name' => 'Jane', 'age' => 30],
        ['name' => 'Bob', 'age' => 20]
    ];

    foreach ($data as $row) {
        if ($row['age'] < 25) {
            echo '<tr class="highlighted">';
        } else {
            echo '<tr>';
        }

        echo '<td>' . $row['name'] . '</td>';
        echo '<td>' . $row['age'] . '</td>';
        echo '</tr>';
    }
    ?>
</table>

<style>
    .highlighted {
        background-color: yellow;
    }
</style>
