## Pipe operator (`|`)
-Delimits a step in a Python pipeline. For example: `[Final Output PCollection]
= ([Initial Input PCollection] | [First Transform] | [Second Transform] |
[Third Transform])`. The output of each transform is passed from left to right
as input to the next transform. The pipe operator in Python is equivalent to
the `apply` method in Java (in other words, the pipe applies a transform to a
PCollection).

you can use pipes to chain programs.
Review comment:
maybe instead of "chain programs" say "pass the output of one program
into the input of another" to make the analogy more clear.
