Getting A Collection

Getting a collection has the same syntax as getting a database:

<?php
$connection = new MongoClient();
$db = $connection->baz;

// select a collection:
$collection = $db->foobar;

// or, directly selecting a database and collection:
$collection = $connection->baz->foobar;
?>

A collection is analogous to a table (if you are familiar with relational databases).
