Print_r returns what I want but echo does not

I am trying to get the first "url" from what I think is an array.

This get the "url" works fine but it not usable obviously

print_r ($wantedimage[0]);

But this gets error:

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

When I try

echo $wantedimage[0];

What am I doing wrong please?

Use var_dump or Kint. And also $wantedimage[0], what's the type of this? Integer, Float, String, Array, ..., What?

Worked it out with help from the answers here and my own tenacity.

This worked for some reason. So please do not delete question as I flagged for if it is useful.

$wantedimage =$data-> images;

$a0=$wantedimage[0]->url;

echo $a0;

Thanks for the help.

Sorry I was so stressed about it. It's part of a bigger code with many nested levels.

You should use something like this:

foreach($wantedimage as $key => $value)
{
  echo $value;
}

Or based on it's structure:

$wantedimage[0]->url
