at some point we should probably introduce some deprecated: true field, to "grey out" labels in the overview maybe?

---

The `|>` operator passes a value to a function as its last argument.

> Note that this operator has been deprecated. See [Triangle Pipe](/docs/manual/latest/pipe#triangle-pipe-deprecated) for more details.

### Example

<CodeTab labels={["ReScript", "JS Output"]}>

```res
let dieRoll = size => {
Js.Math.random_int(1, size)
}

let dieRollMessage = (name, value) => {
"Hi " ++ name ++ ", you rolled a " ++ Js.Int.toString(value)
}

let message = dieRoll(6) |> dieRollMessage("Jeremy")
```

```js
function dieRoll(size) {
return Js_math.random_int(1, size);
}

function dieRollMessage(name, value) {
return "Hi " + name + ", you rolled a " + value.toString();
}

var message = dieRollMessage("Jeremy", Js_math.random_int(1, 6));
```

</CodeTab>

Which produces a message such as `Hello Jeremy, you rolled a 3`.
