Instance Property

last

The last element of the collection.

Declaration

var last: Element? { get }

Discussion

If the collection is empty, the value of this property is nil.

let numbers = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50]
if let lastNumber = numbers.last {
    print(lastNumber)
}
// Prints "50"

Complexity: O(1)
