Use the tail() method to print the last n rows of a DataFrame.

The method takes the optional argument n number of rows to print. Default value is dependent on the value of the teradataml DataFrame display option max_rows, which is by default 10.

The DataFrame is sorted on the index column or the first column if there is no index column. The column type must support sorting.

Unsupported types include: 'BLOB', 'CLOB', 'ARRAY', 'VARRAY'.

Example: Print default number of rows
