How can I run a loop in PHP to iterate alphabets from a-z?

Something like that:

for( $i ='a'; $i <= 'z'; $i++ ) {

    echo "<br>".$i;
 }

Simply use range function of PHP

foreach(range('a','z') as $v){
    echo "$v \n";
}

You can use range:

<?php
foreach(range('a','z') as $letter) 
{ 
   echo "$letter<br/>"; 
}

in addition you can store in array:

$alphas = range('a', 'z');
