new formatting setting. It can be a combination of the following constants: Constant Explanation dec uses decimal base for conversions oct use octal base for conversions hex use hexadecimal base for conversions basefield dec|oct|hex. Useful for masking operations left left adjustment (adds fill characters to the right) right right adjustment (adds fill characters to the left) internal internal adjustment (adds fill characters to the internal designated point) adjustfield left|right|internal. Useful for masking operations scientific generate floating point types using scientific notation fixed generate floating point types using fixed notation floatfield scientific|fixed. Useful for masking operations boolalpha insert and extract bool type in alphanumeric format showbase generate a prefix indicating the numeric base for integer number output showpoint generate a decimal-point character unconditionally for floating-point number output showpos generate a + character for non-negative numeric output skipws skip leading whitespace before certain input operations unitbuf flush the output after each output operation uppercase replace certain lowercase letters with their uppercase equivalents in certain output output operations
