    435435second will raise ``DoesNotExist`` if no objects match the given criteria.

     437**New in Django development version**
     438
     439You can also use negative slicing and negative indexes, provided the
     440``QuerySet``s has an explicit order (either via ``.order_by()`` or the model's
     441meta ``ordering`` option). For example::
     442
     443    entries_by_date_order = Entry.objects.order_by('pub_date')
     444    oldest_entry = entries_by_date_order[0]
     445    latest_entry = entries_by_date_order[-1]
     446    latest_three_entries = entries_by_date_order[:-3]
