Python - get last item in a list, using a file

I have a file:

enter image description here

I split the lines so I get this:

enter image description here

But I'm only interested in the last item in each of those lists, so 77, 77, 6 etc. Is there a way to obtain them?

if you are working with big file:

>>> with open('yourfile') as f:
...     last_items = [ int(x.strip().split()[-1]) for i,x in enumerate(f) if i> 1 ]
...

For each item, take its [-1] element. Index [-1] refers to the last element of an array, [-2] to the next-to-last, etc.

Assuming you already have that array,

lastItems = [int(i[-1]) for i in yourList[2:]]
