Then we can use `cycler`: ``` $adsCycle = cycler(false, false, true); foreach ($posts as $post) { // show post if ($adsCycle->next()) { // show add } } ``` You can access the current item using the `current` method (in the above example, `$adsCycle->current()`) Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
