\value{

If no other arguments are supplied it depends on the type of x. The last item of a vector or list. The last row of a \code{data.frame} or \code{data.table}. Otherwise, whatever \code{xts::last} returns (if package xts has been loaded, otherwise a helpful error).

If any argument is supplied in addition to \code{x} (such as \code{n} or \code{keep} in \code{xts::last}), regardless of \code{x}'s type, then \code{xts::last} is called if xts has been loaded, otherwise a helpful error.
