Why adding JQuery in a visualforce page?

Hi,

 

  I have seen some people adding jquery in visualforce page in their project.Whenever I see that code I can understand the visualforce page code starting from <apex:page> to the end except the Jquery which was written before the visualforce page.I'm very new to Jqueries.Can anyone explain me about Jquery and its necessity.

 

Thanks in advance
