 Explanation
 basefield
 dec | oct | hex. Useful for masking operations
 right
 right adjustment (adds fill characters to the left): see std::right 
 internal

 adjustfield
 left | right | internal. Useful for masking operations
 scientific
 generate floating point types using scientific notation, or hex notation if combined with fixed: see std::scientific 
 fixed
 generate floating point types using fixed notation, or hex notation if combined with scientific: see std::fixed 
 floatfield
 scientific | fixed. Useful for masking operations
 showbase
 generate a prefix indicating the numeric base for integer output, require the currency indicator in monetary I/O: see std::showbase 
 showpoint
 generate a decimal-point character unconditionally for floating-point number output: see std::showpoint 
 skipws
 skip leading whitespace before certain input operations: see std::skipws 
 unitbuf
 flush the output after each output operation: see std::unitbuf 
 uppercase
 replace certain lowercase letters with their uppercase equivalents in certain output operations: see std::uppercase
