How do I get the last 5 rows of a datatable?

How do I get the last 5 rows of a datatable? I tried something like this: 

var Long_bottom = LongSlection.Last(5);

Where LongSlection is a DataRow. But I had an error, any idea?

Solution

  • Not sure what you have got here

    var Long_bottom = LongSlection.Last(5);

    Assuming you have a DataTable and you want to get the last 5 rows you can do that via

    datatable1.AsEnumerable().Reverse().Take(5);

    Take and Skip return the specific number of elments (parameter is int) while which is not the case with Last you get the last element or you need a predicate for checking conditions or checks within the row.
