bad87fee1348bd9aed008826	Target Even Elements Using jQuery	link https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/animate.css/3.2.0/animate.css	6	18318

Description

You can also target elements based on their positions using :odd or :even selectors. Note that jQuery is zero-indexed which means the first element in a selection has a position of 0. This can be a little confusing as, counter-intuitively, :odd selects the second element (position 1), fourth element (position 3), and so on. Here's how you would target all the odd elements with class target and give them classes: $(".target:odd").addClass("animated shake"); Try selecting all the even target elements and giving them the classes of animated and shake. Remember that even refers to the position of elements with a zero-based system in mind.

Instructions

Tests

tests:
  - text: All of the <code>target</code> elements that jQuery considers to be even should shake.
    testString: assert($('.target:even').hasClass('animated') && $('.target:even').hasClass('shake'));
  - text: You should use the <code>&#58;even</code> selector to modify these elements.
    testString: assert(code.match(/\:even/g));
  - text: Only use jQuery to add these classes to the element.
    testString: assert(code.match(/\$\(".target:even"\)/g) || code.match(/\$\('.target:even'\)/g) || code.match(/\$\(".target"\).filter\(":even"\)/g) || code.match(/\$\('.target'\).filter\(':even'\)/g));
