You don't even need a UDF for this. In the graphical editor look for the standard functions and once you do a scroll over on 'text functions; you will find what you are looking for.

Just a piece of advice, try keeping UDF's to minimum unless really required or it is complicated without it.

You can try this:

String lastWord = line.substring(line.lastIndexOf(' ') + 1);
