1
#
The header <iomanip> defines several functions that support extractors and inserters that alter information maintained by class ios_­base and its derived classes.
🔗
unspecified resetiosflags(ios_base::fmtflags mask);
2
#
Returns: An object of unspecified type such that if out is an object of type basic_­ostream<charT, traits> then the expression out << resetiosflags(mask) behaves as if it called f(out, mask), or if in is an object of type basic_­istream<charT, traits> then the expression in >> resetiosflags(​mask) behaves as if it called f(in, mask), where the function f is defined as:322
void f(ios_base& str, ios_base::fmtflags mask) {
  // reset specified flags
  str.setf(ios_base::fmtflags(0), mask);
}
The expression out << resetiosflags(mask) has type basic_­ostream<charT, traits>& and value out.
The expression in >> resetiosflags(mask) has type basic_­istream<charT, traits>& and value in.
🔗
unspecified setiosflags(ios_base::fmtflags mask);
3
#
Returns: An object of unspecified type such that if out is an object of type basic_­ostream<charT, traits> then the expression out << setiosflags(mask) behaves as if it called f(out, mask), or if in is an object of type basic_­istream<charT, traits> then the expression in >> setiosflags(mask) behaves as if it called f(in, mask), where the function f is defined as: 
void f(ios_base& str, ios_base::fmtflags mask) {
  // set specified flags
  str.setf(mask);
}
The expression out << setiosflags(mask) has type basic_­ostream<charT, traits>& and value out.
The expression in >> setiosflags(mask) has type basic_­istream<charT, traits>& and value in.
🔗
unspecified setbase(int base);
4
#
Returns: An object of unspecified type such that if out is an object of type basic_­ostream<charT, traits> then the expression out << setbase(base) behaves as if it called f(out, base), or if in is an object of type basic_­istream<charT, traits> then the expression in >> setbase(base) behaves as if it called f(in, base), where the function f is defined as:
void f(ios_base& str, int base) {
  // set basefield
  str.setf(base ==  8 ? ios_base::oct :
      base == 10 ? ios_base::dec :
      base == 16 ? ios_base::hex :
      ios_base::fmtflags(0), ios_base::basefield);
}
The expression out << setbase(base) has type basic_­ostream<charT, traits>& and value out.
The expression in >> setbase(base) has type basic_­istream<charT, traits>& and value in.
🔗
unspecified setfill(char_type c);
5
#
Returns: An object of unspecified type such that if out is an object of type basic_­ostream<charT, traits> and c has type charT then the expression out << setfill(c) behaves as if it called f(out, c), where the function f is defined as:
template<class charT, class traits>
void f(basic_ios<charT, traits>& str, charT c) {
  // set fill character
  str.fill(c);
}
The expression out << setfill(c) has type basic_­ostream<charT, traits>& and value out.
🔗
unspecified setprecision(int n);
6
#
Returns: An object of unspecified type such that if out is an object of type basic_­ostream<charT, traits> then the expression out << setprecision(n) behaves as if it called f(out, n), or if in is an object of type basic_­istream<charT, traits> then the expression in >> setprecision(n) behaves as if it called f(in, n), where the function f is defined as:
void f(ios_base& str, int n) {
  // set precision
  str.precision(n);
}
The expression out << setprecision(n) has type basic_­ostream<charT, traits>& and value out.
The expression in >> setprecision(n) has type basic_­istream<charT, traits>& and value in.
🔗
unspecified setw(int n);
7
#
Returns: An object of unspecified type such that if out is an instance of basic_­ostream<charT, traits> then the expression out << setw(n) behaves as if it called f(out, n), or if in is an object of type basic_­istream<charT, traits> then the expression in >> setw(n) behaves as if it called f(in, n), where the function f is defined as:
void f(ios_base& str, int n) {
  // set width
  str.width(n);
}
The expression out << setw(n) has type basic_­ostream<charT, traits>& and value out.
The expression in >> setw(n) has type basic_­istream<charT, traits>& and value in.
322)
The expression cin >> resetiosflags(ios_­base​::​skipws) clears ios_­base​::​skipws in the format flags stored in the basic_­istream<charT, traits> object cin (the same as cin >> noskipws), and the expression cout << resetiosflags(ios_­base​::​showbase) clears ios_­base​::​showbase in the format flags stored in the basic_­ostream<charT, traits> object cout (the same as cout << noshowbase).
