The :nth-last-of-type() selector in jQuery is used to select all elements that are the nth child, counting from the last child.

Syntax

The syntax is as follows −

:nth-last-of-type(n|even|odd|formula)

Above, the n parameter is the index of each child to match. The even parameter selects even child element, whereas odd selects odd child element.
