# The MongoCursor class

## Introducción

Result object for database query.

The database is not actually queried until next() or hasNext() is called. Before the database is queried, commands can be strung together, as in:

    <?php
    $cursor = $collection->find()->limit(10);

    // database has not yet been queried, so more search options can be added
    $cursor = $cursor->sort(array("a" => 1));

    var_dump($cursor->getNext());
    // now database has been queried and more options cannot be added

    // so this will throw an exception:
    $cursor->skip(4);
    ?>
