Variable division, assignment and sprintf in one line

Hi again all,

Is there a way that one can use sprintf on a variable and assign the
value back to the variable without having the leading $var= ?

$var = sprintf ("%.2f", (($var /=1024) /=1024)))

I've got a hash of hashrefs of hashrefs and I'd rather not specify the
variable name on the left and right hand side if possible.

Tks,

Steve
