## The last method

The **`last` method** gets the last element of a Haskel list.

>A Haskell list can be of any data type, a string of letters, an array of numbers, etc.


## Why get the last element of a list?

Getting the last element of a list can come in handy while working with arrays. Like in functions where we add into an array or remove from it, we will want to know the last element in the array after the action.

## Syntax of the last method

```text
last list
```

## Parameter

The `last` method takes the `list` as a parameter.

## Code

Let's look at the executable code below to see how we can get the last element:



main = do 
  let x = [1,3,5,7,9]
  print(last x)

## Explanation


* Line 2: We declare a variable `x` and assign an array of numbers to it.

- Line 3: To get the last element in the list, we use the `print()` method. Here, we pass the `last()` function with the list as an argument.
