Put all element values in an array

Question

I have the following markup:

<div class="class1"><p>line1</p><p>line 2</p></div>

With jQuery, how can I take the values of all p tags in a div and put them in an array?

I assume that you mean the contents of the elements <p>, not their meaning (this is nothing).

var text = [];
$('.class1 > p').each(function() {
    text[text.length] = $(this).text();
});

var arr = $('.class1 p').map(function () {
    return $(this).text();
}).get();
