Returns the last item in the list. A lookup_err() is raised when this function is used on an empty list unless a default value is given, in which case the given value will be returned.
ThingsDB uses lazy-evaluation of function arguments. For this reason the default value might be a function call or code block which will only be evaluated when the list is empty.
This function does not generate a change.
array.last([alt]])
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|

This code shows an example using last():
