Item position in an array - php

Question

If I have id number and an array in the following format, how do I find out what count (position number) 'Red' among all other items where cat == 4? The answer I am looking for #3 of 4.
Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 1
[cat] => 1
[que] => Description here.
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 2
[cat] => 1
[que] => Description here.
)
[2] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 3
[cat] => 1
[que] => Description here.
)
....
[31] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 32
[cat] => 4
[que] => Description here.
)
[32] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 33
[cat] => 4
[que] => Description here.
)
[33] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 34
[cat] => 4
[que] => Red.
)
[34] => stdClass Object
(
[id] => 35
[cat] => 4
[que] => Description here.
)
)
Do I need to split array and then loop? Lost...
--------- EDIT ----------
OK, I did a bad job explaining...
What I meant was: there are many objects withing this array. They are broken into groups, categories. [cat] is the value for each group. There are multiple items in each group. What I was hoping to get was a number of items in each group and the position of particular item withing that group, for example: 4 out of 12.

Answer 1

$position = 0;
$counts = array();
foreach ($yourarray as $obj) {
if (!isset($counts[$obj->cat])) $counts[$obj->cat] = 0;
$counts[$obj->cat]++;
if ($obj->cat == 4 && $obj->que == "Red") {
$position = $counts[$obj->cat];
}
}
if ($position >= 0) {
echo "Object is $position out of $counts[4] objects in category 4\n";
}
foreach($counts as $key=>$val){
echo "Category $key has $val objects.\n";
}
(Revised to count all categories)

Answer 2

My edit to Ian Shannon's answer was rejected, so here's what I was proposing, which builds on his by using object notation instead of array notation and keeps track of the total.
I think the simplest way would be to loop through the array with a foreach, and if cat == 4, increment a counter until you reach the one you want. Something like this:
$pos = 0;
$total = 0;
foreach ($yourarray as $subarray) {
if ($subarray->cat == 4) {
$total++;
if ($subarray->que == "Red") {
$pos = $total;
}
}
}
$pos will be the position of the element you're looking for, and $total will be the total in that category.

Answer 3

$found = 0;
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
if($value->cat == '4'){
$arrayPosition = $key;
$found++;
}
}
echo 'Found ' . $found . ' cat\'s, matching the criteria';
Didn't exactly understand what the matching criteria should be except for cat=4, and if "que" contains some more information you want to match, change the if statement.
if($value->cat == '4' && $value->que == 'Red'){
