Retrieve results from multi dimensional array - php

Question

This is my first post so hello there all!
Wondering could I get a bit of help with getting my results out of this md array? Its giving me unexpected results. I have looked for answers but am not sure what question I should be asking..
This is a sample of the relevant part of the array [using var_dump]:
["Attendee"] => array(11)
{
["id"]=> int(148)
["firstname"]=> string(5) "dave"
["lastname"]=> string(6) "davey"`
}
This is my foreach code to get the first and last names for each attendee:
foreach ($the_info_array['body']['Registrations'] as $registrations)
{
foreach ($registrations as $regvalue)
{
echo $regvalue['firstname'].” “.$regvalue['lastname'];
}
echo “<br>”;
}
This prints:
a a2 2 5 5 dave davey
a a2 2 5 5 scott davey
a a2 2 5 5 bill davey
etc
rather than what i want ie:
dave davey
scott davey
bill davey
Where am i going wrong, & what are the extra characters?
Thanks in advance for any kind help the community can give!
EDIT>>
Strangely, if I change the echo to
echo $regvalue['firstname'];
it prints:
a25dave
a25scott
a25bill
and
echo $regvalue['firstname']." ";
prints
a 2 5 dave
a 2 5 scott
a 2 5 bill
Here is the complete array minus several records as I can't seem to post that many characters:

// Also, don't know if relevant, but the array comes from a json decode originally

Answer 1

The problem is that your looping over each array inside registrations even though most of these are not an attendee (i.e $regvalue will be an id in the first loop status in the second loop e.t.c.).
Try:
foreach ($the_info_array['body']['Registrations'] as $registrations)
{
echo $registrations['Attendee']['firstname']." ".$registrations['Attendee']['lastname'];
echo "<br>";
}
