I want to round off all the values in a given hash to 2 decimal places. I do not want to mess with the original, given hash. This is what I came up with:

use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;

use Data::Dumper::Simple;

my %stats = (
    'stdev' => '42.5371995604396',
    'pct_10' => 0,
    'variance' => '668.660986666667',
    'sterr' => '17.3657390016697',
    'median' => '-130.925',
    'pct_90' => '94.4',
    'average' => '131.503333333333'
);
print Dumper(%stats);

my %rounded_stats = ();
foreach my $stat (keys %stats){
     #print "$stat $stats{$stat}\n";
     my $round = sprintf("%.2f", $stats{$stat});
     $rounded_stats{$stat} = $round;
}

print Dumper(%stats);
print Dumper(%rounded_stats);

Is this the best way? Any advice or tips?
