Count the number of <div>

Is it possible using jQuery to count the number of div elements?

I have this code:

<div id = "center">
  <div class ="name">text text</div>
  <div class ="name">text text text ... </div>
  <div class ="name">text ...</div>
</div>

And get number: 3

<div id="center">
  <div class="name">text text</div>
  <div class="name">
       <div class="SomeOtherDiv">bla bla</div>
  </div>
  <div class="name">text ...</div>
</div>

Usage:

$('#center div').length  // Result: 4
$('#center > div').length // Result: 3
