jQuery is a strong utility that provides several DOM cross-checking methods for randomly and sequentially selecting items in a document. Most DOM Traversal methods do not affect the object of jQuery and are used to filter elements out based on certain requirements from the content.
The filter method can filter all elements from the matched elements set that do not match the selector (s). You can write the selector with any selector syntax.
You can choose all the descendants of a given element type by using the find(selector) method. You can write the selector with any selector syntax.
