jQuery is() Method
The is() method in jQuery is used to check whether one of the selected elements matches the value in parameter selectorEle.
Syntax
The syntax is as follows −
$(selector).is(selectorElement,func(index,element))
Above, selectorEle is a selector expression, element or jQuery object to match with the current set of the element. The func parameter is used to specify a function to run for the group of selected elements.

}
</style>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
