The oct() method of stream manipulators in C++ is used to set the baseline format flag for the specified str stream. This flag sets the baseline for Octal numbers. Hence the output shows the number in Octal base.
Syntax:
ios_base& oct (ios_base& str)
Parameters: This method accepts str as a parameter which is the stream for which the format flag is affected.
Return Value: This method returns the stream str with internal format flag set.
Example 1:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int n = 321;
cout << "oct flag: "
<< oct << n << endl;
return 0;
}
|
Example 2:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int n = -321;
cout << "oct flag: "
<< oct << n << endl;
return 0;
}
|
Output:
oct flag: 37777777277
