list_pop (list l) ⇒ mixed
Gets and removes the last element from the list and returns the value.
Notes
Prior to version 1.7.2, this method would not modify the original list but would return a new list containing the original list minus the first list and the value removed.
Prior to version 1.9.8
Prior to version 1.9.8 (Chirnside), this function would return false
when the list had a size smaller than 1. As of version 1.9.8 it returns a null
.
Prior to version 1.8.7
Prior to version 1.8.7 (Portman), there is an implementation issue in which
list_pop
and list_dequeue
have their implementations
the wrong way around. It appears that the names were given to them the wrong
way around when they were added. Version 1.8.7 now makes list_pop
take the element at the end of list or array and list_dequeue
take from
the start of the list or array.
