Drop the last `n` elements of a finite sequence, and return the rest. //! @ingroup group-Sequence //! //! Given a finite `Sequence` `xs` with a linearization of `[x1, ..., xm]` //! and a non-negative `IntegralConstant` `n`, `drop_back(xs, n)` is a //! sequence with the same tag as `xs` whose linearization is //! `[x1, ..., xm-n]`. If `n` is not given, it defaults to an //! `IntegralConstant` with a value equal to `1`. //! //! In case `length(xs) <= n`, `drop_back` will simply drop the whole //! sequence without failing, thus returning an empty sequence. //! //! //! @param xs //! The sequence from which elements are dropped. //! //! @param n //! A non-negative `IntegralConstant` representing the number of elements //! to be dropped from the end of the sequence. If `n` is not given, it //! defaults to an `IntegralConstant` with a value equal to `1`. //! //! //!
