In this code output, how do I access the sub-components of column_defs, for eg : how do i extract the data_length of a in column_defs ? output :
create table as1( a float, b integer, c char)
$VAR1 = {
          'org_table_names' => [
                                 'as1'
                               ],
          'column_names' => [
                              'A',
                              'B',
                              'C'
                            ],
          'command' => 'CREATE',
          'table_names' => [
                             'AS1'
                           ],
          'org_col_names' => [
                               'a',
                               'b',
                               'c'
                             ],
          'column_defs' => {
                             'a' => {
                                      'data_length' => undef,
                                      'data_type' => 'FLOAT'
                                    },
                             'b' => {
                                      'data_length' => undef,
                                      'data_type' => 'INTEGER'
                                    },
                             'c' => {
                                      'data_length' => undef,
                                      'data_type' => 'CHAR'
                                    }
                           }
