Below are the examples to illustrate the last() method:

Example 1:

// Java program to demonstrate last() method

import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        // creating and initializing BreakIterator
        BreakIterator wb
            = BreakIterator.getWordInstance();

        // setting text for BreakIterator
        wb.setText("Code  Geeks");

        // getting the index of last text boundary
        int last = wb.last();

        // display the result
        System.out.println("last boundary : " + last);
    }
}

Output:

last boundary : 11

Example 2:

// Java program to demonstrate last() method

import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
    {
        // creating and initializing BreakIterator
        BreakIterator wb
            = BreakIterator.getWordInstance();

        // setting text for BreakIterator
        wb.setText("GeeksForGeeks");

        // getting the index of last text boundary
        int last = wb.last();

        // display the result
        System.out.println("last boundary : " + last);
    }
}

Output:

last boundary : 13
