Pipe operator

The pipe operator, often represented as `%>%`, is a tool used in programming to make complex data operations more readable. It takes the output from one function and immediately passes it as input to the next function, creating a clear, step-by-step flow. Think of it as a pipeline where data flows through multiple stages smoothly, reducing the need for nested or repetitive code. This approach simplifies understanding and maintaining data processing tasks, especially in languages like R with packages such as dplyr, where it's used to chain commands seamlessly.
