/**
* Defines {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.PTransform}s for transforming data in a pipeline.
*
* <p>A {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.PTransform} is an operation that takes an {@code
* InputT} (some subtype of {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.values.PInput}) and produces an {@code
* OutputT} (some subtype of {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.values.POutput}).
*
* <p>Common PTransforms include root PTransforms like {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.io.TextIO.Read}
* and {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.Create}, processing and conversion operations like
* {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.ParDo}, {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.GroupByKey},
* {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.join.CoGroupByKey}, {@link
* org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.Combine}, and {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.transforms.Count}, and
* outputting PTransforms like {@link org.apache.beam.sdk.io.TextIO.Write}.
*
* <p>New PTransforms can be created by composing existing PTransforms. Most PTransforms in this
* package are composites, and users can also create composite PTransforms for their own
* application-specific logic.
