# tail

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://kotlin.github.io/dataframe/llms.txt).

Returns a [DataFrame](dataframe.html) with the last five rows.

API reference: [tail](https://kotlin.github.io/dataframe/api-docs/core/org.jetbrains.kotlinx.dataframe.api/tail.html)

This is equivalent to calling [takeLast](slicerows.html#takelast) with the same `numRows` argument. By default, `numRows = 5`.

```KOTLIN
df.tail(numRows: Int = 5)
```

Related operations: [head](head.html), [takeLast](slicerows.html#takelast), [take](slicerows.html#take).
