Stuck on checking values JQuery code challenge

Question:

Create a method called 'requiredValues' that returns an array of all the values of inputs with the class of 'required'.

My Answer:

function requiredValues(.required){
            var blanks = new Array();
            $required.each(function(){ 
            blanks.push($(this).val() == "");
            });
  return blanks.sort().pop(); }

When I put this in it returns back to first task saying it no longer works but first task is correct. Can anyone help..!

The jQuery classes were tough for me too. Sometimes when I get stuck, I try searching the forum to see if anyone else has found the solution. When I did a search for "code challenge jquery requiredvalues", this is one of the results that showed up. I hope this helps.

This was a nightmare for me too..that Andrew Chalkley didn't really break things down the way I expected.

I am stuck on this can anyone help? Using the 'inArray' method check if the array contains the string 'Andrew'

My answer is return $.inArray(true, Andrew) != -1; When I put my answer in it does not come up with a Bummer it sends me to previous task.

Kind regards, Neil

I totally lost in some parts, the jQuery lesson doesn't seem as detail as HTML/CSS and Javascript.
