title: View last N documents using MongoDB Compass
body: <p>I wish to view in MongoDB Compass the last N documents in a very large collection; too many to scroll through.</p>
  
  <p>I could .skip(total - N) if I knew the syntax for that within Compass.</p>
  
  <p>Alternatively, I have a date field and could use $gte with a date <strong>if</strong> I knew how to express a date in a manner acceptable to Compass.</p>
  
  <p>Suggestion/example how to do this, please?</p>
