NAME
tail - create a list of specified size from the tail of a list
SYNOPSIS
tail(x, y)
TYPES
x list
y int
return list
DESCRIPTION
If 0 <= y <= size(x) == n, tail(x,y) returns a list of size y whose
elements in succession have values x[[n - y]]. x[[1]], ..., x[[n - 1]].
If y > size(x), tail(x,y) is a copy of x.
If -size(x) < y < 0, tail(x,y) returns a list of size (size(x) + y)
whose elements in succession have values x[[-y]]. x[[-y + 1]], ...,
x[[size(x) - 1]], i.e. a copy of x from which the first -y members
have been deleted.
If y <= -size(x), tail(x,y) returns a list with no members.
For any integer y, x == join(head(x,-y), tail(x,y)).
EXAMPLE
> A = list(2, 3, 5, 7, 11)
> tail(A, 2)
list (2 members, 2 nonzero):
[[0]] = 7
[[1]] = 11
> tail(A, -2)
list (3 members, 3 nonzero):
[[0]] = 5
[[1]] = 7
[[2]] = 11
