The each() method in jQuery specifies a function that runs for every matched element. It is one of the widely used traversing methods in JQuery. Using this method, we can iterate over the DOM elements of the jQuery object and can execute a function for every matched element.


$('.someclass').length

You could also use:

$('.someclass').size()

which is functionally equivalent, but the former is preferred. In fact, the latter is now deprecated and shouldn't be used in any new development.


var count_elements = $('.class').length;

From: http://api.jquery.com/size/

The .size() method is functionally equivalent to the .length property; however, the .length property is preferred because it does not have the overhead of a function call.
