PHP - refer to stdclass object within array

Question

CONTEXT

I'm trying to refer to value below:

Array (
    [0] => stdClass Object (
        [label] => John Smith
        [attributes] => Array (
            [class] => sf-level-0 sf-item-14
        )
        [value] => smith-john
        [depth] => 0
        [count] => 3
    )
    [1] =>... etc.

QUESTION

Assuming the array is called $array, what would be the right format for this? I've tried array[0]->['value'], but it does not work.

$array[0]->value should be what you needed. Did you forget the `$`? — Marc B, Aug 09 '16 at 15:18
I had the `$` - just added it here as well. This worked, thank you for answering and reformating! — Sekoul, Aug 09 '16 at 15:29

Tough to say with your formatting. but:

$array[0]->value

The first element in the array is of type stdClass Object, so to access its members, you use the object accessor -> rather than the array syntax.

PS: Kudos to Marc for making things legible with his edit.
