A = 1:22

 Columns 1 through 17:

    1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9   10   11   12   13   14   15   
16   17

 Columns 18 through 22:

   18   19   20   21   22

>> n = 6
>> A(end-n+1:end) # Last n elements
ans =

   17   18   19   20   21   22

>> max(A(end-n+1:end)) # Max of last n elements
ans =  22
