What's the meaning of output of lsattr

I'm wondering what the output of lsattr means.It prints so oddly as follows,when I have tried

lsattr /usr


  • -----------------e- /usr/local
  • -----------------e- /usr/src
  • -----------------e- /usr/games
  • --------------I--e- /usr/include
  • --------------I--e- /usr/share
  • --------------I--e- /usr/lib
  • -----------------e- /usr/lib32
  • --------------I--e- /usr/bin
  • --------------I--e- /usr/sbin

I've read the man page of chattr and lsattr but still got no idea. Any answers or suggestions will be appreciated:)
