I want to count in if statement in foreach loop laravel 5.6 - laravel-5.6

Question

As I am new to Laravel so facing this problem and tried it in other ways but it is not working.
Here my blade file
products.blade.php
#foreach($products as $product)
<div class="women">
<h6>{{$product->title}}</h6>
<span class="size">XL / XXL / S </span>
<p ><em class="item_price">Rs.{{$product->price}}</em></p>
</div>
#if(count($product) == 3)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
#endforeach
Why this is not working
#if(count($product) == 3)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
Or how can I count the product in iteration and compare the count number in if statement?

Answer 1

You can use loop variable like this.
Instead of:
#if(count($product) == 3)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
you should use:
#if($loop->iteration == 3)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
But it's quite possible that you might need it after every 3 elements (3, 6, 9 and so on), so maybe better solution would be:
#if($loop->iteration % 3 == 0)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
You example didn't work because $product is just an object so count($product) will not have expected value. Also if you used count($products) (notice trailing s) it won't work because count of products is the same in each loop iteration.

Answer 2

If you have more or less than 3 products, your if statement is never going to show. What you're looking for is the third item in the products array, which you can do like this:
#foreach($products as $key => $product)
<div class="women">
<h6>{{$product->title}}</h6>
<span class="size">XL / XXL / S </span>
<p><em class="item_price">Rs.{{$product->price}}</em></p>
</div>
#if($key == 2)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
#endforeach

Answer 3

To get the index of the loop, use
#foreach ($athletes as $key=>$athlete)
// Some html goes here
{ { ++$key } }
#endforeach
add if condition to key
let me know how it goes

Answer 4

The array count will always be the same, inside or outside of the loop.
If you want to make a decision based on the current iteration, ex. "on every third product put a clearfix div", then apply the condition to the key if the key is numeric.
Blade provides a loop variable with an iteration property (starts at 1) to help with this, see here https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/blade#the-loop-variable
Example for every third product:
#foreach($products as $product)
...
#if ($loop->$loop->iteration%3 == 0)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
...
#endforeach
Example for the third product only:
#if ($loop->$loop->iteration == 3)
<div class="clearfix"></div>
#endif
