What is difference between get() and eq() in jquery?

Question

What is the difference between

var row1 = $('tr').get(0);

and

var row2 = $('tr').eq(0);

Answer 1

get(0) returns the first DOM element matched by the selector.

eq(0) returns a jQuery object containing the first DOM element matched by the selector.

In other words, $("selector").get(0) is equivalent to $("selector").eq(0).get(0).
