How to access a variable within an array

Question

I have a vardump that looks like this:

Array
(
    [0] => stdClass Object
        (
            [downloadsLeft] => 0
        )

)

It's stored in the variable $downloadsOBJ

How would I access the downloadsLeft variable within that array and store it in a new variable:

e.g.

$downloadsLeft = $downloadsOBJ['downloadsLeft'];

$downloadsLeft = $downloadsOBJ[0]->downloadsLeft; should do the trick

I believe $downloadsLeft = $downloadsOBJ[0]->downloadsLeft; because stdClass is an object, not an array..

$downloadsOBJ itself is an array.

Haha, oops, my bad. Thanks for catching that.
