Loop Categories Wordpress

Question

I have this code.

<?php
$categories = get_categories( array(
    'taxonomy' => 'events_cat',
    'orderby' => 'name',
    'order'   => 'ASC'
));
foreach ($categories as $category) ?> 
    <div>
        <?php name(); ?>
    </div>
<?php endforeach; ?>

I try show list categories (foreach), but this no work. any idea why it does not work?

Missing `:` after `foreach ($categories as $category)`, it should be `foreach ($categories as $category): ?> ` — Rajdeep Paul, Sep 17 '17 at 12:23

My solution

Add: foreach ($categories as $category) : ?>
Update: <?php echo $category->cat_name; ?>

<?php
$categories = get_categories( array(
        'taxonomy' => 'events_cat',
    'orderby' => 'name',
    'order'   => 'ASC'
));
foreach ($categories as $category) : ?>
    <div>
        <?php echo $category->cat_name; ?>
    </div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
