Description

First and Last take []Node which is not compatible with things like []*DateNode. It should take an interface{} instead.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current implementation of First and Last functions to understand how they accept []Node, then design a change to accept interface{} while preserving type safety and backward compatibility.
