When selecting just one element, use the ID selector while selecting a group of elements with the same CSS class as using the class selector.

Que 12. What is the use of Jquery.each () function?
Answer. The function “jQuery.each()” is a general function that loops through a set (a type of entity or type of array). The index position and value of array-like objects with a length property are iterated. Certain objects are iterated on the properties of their primary value.

Nevertheless, the function “jQuery.each()” works differently from the function $(selector).each() that uses the selector to operate on the DOM component. But both iterate about an element of jQuery.

Syntax:

< script type = "text/javascript" >
$(document).ready(function() {
var arr = ["Mary", "John", "Garry", "Tina", "Daisy"];
$.each(arr, function(index, value) {
alert('Position is : ' + index + ' And Value is : ' + value);

Answer. NO, JQuery is not a replacement for JavaScript.

Que 15. Differentiate between prop and attr?
Answer. JQuery. prop() – It gets a property value in the matched element set for the first element.

JQuery. Attr()– In the matched element set, it gets the value of an attribute for the first element.

Attributes contain additional HTML element information and come in pairs of name=”value”. You can set and specify an attribute for an HTML element when the source code is published.
