How to convert array into int in laravel 4.2

Question

My field in table is an array and I want to convert it to an int.

$totalreward = DB::table('bid_packs')
    ->select('bid_pack_reward_points')->first();
$solve = $totalreward * $qty;

print_r ($solve);

It always prompt this error

Object of class stdClass could not be converted to int

its too many but i want to select the bid_pack_reward_points for computing the qty — Kouya Marino

DB::table('bid_packs')->select('bid_pack_reward_points')->first(); returns an object that has properties with the names of the fields you selected.

In this case:

$totalreward = DB::table('bid_packs')->select('bid_pack_reward_points')->first();
$solve = $totalreward->bid_pack_reward_points * $qty;
print_r ($solve);

Or, since you're trying to get one value from the first row, you can use pluck() to get straight to the value:

$totalreward = DB::table('bid_packs')->pluck('bid_pack_reward_points');
$solve = $totalreward * $qty;
print_r ($solve);
