Count how many sections in a article

At least i want to count how many sections are in one article. If this doesn´t work with this elements, I also could use normal "div" tags instead. Sorry for my bad english.

<article>
    <section>
        <p>text</p>
    </section>
    <section>
        <p>example</p>
    </section>
</article>

If you have more than one <article> and are wanting to know how many are in each one:

$('article').each(function(){
   var secCount = $(this).find('section').length;
});

Try this:

     <div>
         <p></p>
         <p></p>
         <p></p>
         <p></p>
         <p></p>
     </div>

script:

     var a=$("div p").length;
     alert(a);
