Hello Numpy community,
I'm proposing the introduction of a `pipe` method for NumPy arrays to enhance their usability and expressiveness.
Adding a prominent method like this to `np.ndarray` is something that we will probably not take up ourselves unless it is adopted by the Array API standard <https://data-apis.org/array-api/latest/>. It's possible that you might get some interest there since the Array API deliberately strips out the number of methods that we already have (e.g. `.mean()`, `.sum()`, etc.) in favor of functions. A general way to add some kind of fluency cheaply in an Array API-agnostic fashion might be helpful to people trying to make their numpy-only code that uses our current set of methods in this way a bit easier. But you'll have to make the proposal to them, I think, to get started. -- Robert Kern
