What type of files is the tail command particularly useful for?

The tail command is particularly useful for viewing:

1. Log Files: It allows you to see the most recent entries in log files, which is essential for monitoring system activity and troubleshooting.
2. Large Text Files: You can quickly read the last few lines of large documents without opening the entire file.
3. Files Being Updated: With the -f option, tail can monitor files in real-time as they are being updated, making it ideal for tracking ongoing processes or events.
