polars.last

polars.last(column: str) → Expr

polars.last(column: Series) → Any

polars.last(column: None = None) → Expr

Get the last value.

Depending on the input type this function does different things:

• None -> expression to take last column of a context.

• str -> syntactic sugar for pl.col(..).last()

• Series -> Take last value in Series

Examples

>>> df = pl.DataFrame({"a": [1, 8, 3], "b": [4, 5, 2], "c": ["foo", "bar", "foo"]})
>>> df.select(pl.last())
shape: (3, 1)
