stdClass problem

Hallo!

I do not know what is this stdClass.

I get the following array with print_r().

Array
(
    [0] => stdClass Object
        (
            [id] => 1477
            [name_news] => bla bla
        )

    [1] => stdClass Object
        (
            [id] => 1719
            [name_news] => more bla
        )
)

PHP:

But what is obtained by using foreach:

 foreach ($response as $new) {
    echo  $new . "<br>";
 }

PHP:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string



What is this? Thanx!
