In PHP is there a difference between foreach syntax

Question

Is there any reason to use one foreach syntax instead of another?

foreach (array_expression as $value) {
    // statements
}

or

foreach (array_expression as $value) :
    // statements
endforeach; 

Answer 1

They are completely equivalent, as stated in the official manual of PHP.

See here for more info: http://php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php

Answer 2

Most times the foreach ... endforeach version is used in "templates". So it's easier for you to follow the logic of templates.
