The pipe operator and labeled argument are unrelated concepts. With Base the code you shared above would be
rows |> List.map ~f:(fun row -> render_row row widths)
Maybe read up on labeled arguments if you find them confusing:
ocaml.org/manual/5.4/l...
rows |> List.map ~f:(fun row -> render_row row widths)
Maybe read up on labeled arguments if you find them confusing:

~f: is a labelled function argument, like a named arg in other languages.

I took two simple code examples from Real World OCaml and threw them in a gist for you, including some comments on the differences between Base and the standard library.

This question recently popped up in a WhatsApp group some close buddies and I have. We got quite close to the real answer, though we definitely didn't consider wind instruments 😅
