Last letters remove form array in foreach loop

I want to remove the last few letters from an array in a for-each loop. I am trying to show bl_date without /2018. Now its showing 07/10/2018 & 06/30/2018. How can echo like this 07/10 & 06/30?

bl_date

/2018

07/10/2018 & 06/30/2018

07/10 & 06/30

Array

Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 18
[bl_user] => 61
[bl_date] => 07/10/2018
)

[1] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 17
[bl_user] => 61
[bl_date] => 06/30/2018

)

)


PHP

$resultstr = array();
foreach ($billings as $billing) {
$resultstr = $billing->bl_date;
}
echo implode(" & ",$resultstr);

One option is to use substr() to remove the last 5 characters of the string

substr()

Like:

$resultstr = array();
foreach ($billings as $billing) {
$resultstr = substr( $billing->bl_date, 0, -5 );
}
echo implode(" & ",$resultstr);


This will result to:

07/10 & 06/30


Doc: substr()

You need to use substr function:

foreach ($billings as $billing) {
$resultstr = substr($billing->bl_date, 0, 5);
}
