How do I access this array using var_dump? PHP

Question

I would like to display the text 'hamsters repeat one'.

My array: a:1:{i:0;s:19:"hamsters repeat one";}

Should I use var_dump for this? In PHP. I know how to get the array data out of the database (I am using get_post_meta a wordpress feature for this) .

Should it be something like this? : var_dump $variablewhicharrayhasbeenstored; Thank-you

That's a serialized array. Assuming PHP.. See unserialize

Use unserialize($myvar) to decode that string into an array.
