Retrieving the Last Item of a List

my_list = ['red', 'blue', 'green']

# Get the last item with brute force using len
last_item = my_list[len(my_list) - 1]

# Remove the last item from the list using pop
last_item = my_list.pop() 

# Get the last item using negative indices *preferred & quickest method*
last_item = my_list[-1]

# Get the last item using iterable unpacking
*_, last_item = my_list
