`Composite`__
=============

Purpose
-------

To treat a group of objects the same way as a single instance of the
object.

Examples
--------

-  a form class instance handles all its form elements like a single
   instance of the form, when ``render()`` is called, it subsequently
   runs through all its child elements and calls ``render()`` on them
