jquery end() method syntax
Function: end() method ends the most recent filtering operation in the current chain and restores the set of matching elements to its previous state.
Syntax: .end()
Description: Most jQuery traversal methods will operate on a jQuery object instance and generate A new object that matches a different set of DOM elements. When this happens, the new set of elements should be pushed onto the stack maintained in the object. Each successful filter method call pushes a new element onto the stack. If we need the old set of elements, we can use end() to pop the new set from the stack.
