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
