How to display the last lines of several files in one command in Linux?

Question

linux

Good day to all.
Task: print the last 5 lines from several files.
I output like this:

tail -5 "/path/to/file1.ext" && tail -5 "/path/to/file2.ext" && tail -5 "/path/to/file3.ext"

Problem: If file 2 does not exist, lines of subsequent files are not output.
Question: how can I print the last 5 lines of each file, skipping non-existent ones?
Thank you.

Answer 1

instead of "&&" use ";" Luke!!
and in general - to read what is &&

Answer 2

tail -qn5 /path/to/file{1..3}.ext
if at all you need to ignore the error then:
tail -qn5 /path/to/file{1..3}.ext 2>/dev/null

Answer 3

xargs you can try using
