IPython how to print last n commands?

Question

I am using IPython 2.7. I wish to print last 3 or 5 or in general 'n' commands. The %hist command prints all the commands till now. Note, here, by 'n' I do not refer to line numberings (i.e. IPython's indexing of each line).

Answer 1

To get the last 5 commands:

%hist -l 5

You can see all the arguments that %hist supports by typing %history?.
