Lesson 9 of 15
Pipe Operator
Pipe Operator
The |> operator passes a value as the last argument to a function. It lets you write left-to-right data pipelines:
let result =
[1; 2; 3; 4; 5]
|> List.filter (fun x -> x % 2 = 0)
|> List.map (fun x -> x * x)
|> List.sum
printfn $"{result}" // 20 (4 + 16)
This reads top-to-bottom: start with the list, keep evens, square each, sum all.
Without pipes, the same code would be deeply nested:
let result = List.sum (List.map (fun x -> x * x) (List.filter (fun x -> x % 2 = 0) [1;2;3;4;5]))
Your Task
Write a pipeline that takes the list [1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8; 9; 10], keeps only numbers divisible by 3, doubles each, and sums the result. Print the answer.
