I would rather use Last   from LINQ to do it  rows   rows Remove rows Last      or rows   rows Remove rows LastOrDefault

if you need to do it more often   you can even create your own method for pop the last element  something like this   public void pop List lt string gt  myList        myList RemoveAt myList Count - 1       or even instead of void you can return the value like   public string pop  List lt string gt  myList           first assign the  last value to a seperate string      string extractedString   myList myList Count - 1          then remove it from list     myList RemoveAt myList Count - 1          then return the value      return extractedString      just notice that the second method s return type is not void   it is string b c we want that function to return us a string

rows RemoveAt rows Count - 1

The direct answer to this question is   if rows Any      prevent IndexOutOfRangeException for empty list       rows RemoveAt rows Count - 1       However    in the specific case of this question  it makes more sense not to add the row in the first place   Row row   new Row                 if   row cell 0  Equals  Something          rows Add row       TBH  I d go a step further by testing  Something  against user     and not even instantiating a Row unless the condition is satisfied  but seeing as user    won t compile  I ll leave that as an exercise for the reader

I think the most efficient way to do this is this is using RemoveAt   rows RemoveAt rows Count - 1
