   <title>Document</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<body>
   <form>
      Gender:
      <label><input type="radio" name="gen" value="male" />Male</label>
      <label><input type="radio" name="gen" value="female" />Female</label>
      <br />
      isStudent:

      <label><input type="radio" name="student" value="no" />No</label>
      <br />
      <input type="submit" />
   </form>
</body>
<script>
   var nameValues = 'gen;student'.split(';');
   $(function () {
      $("form").on("submit", function (ev) {
         if (nameValues.filter(val => $(`input[name=${val}]:checked`).length === 0).length > 0) {
            console.log("Radio Button is not checked");
            ev.preventDefault();
         }
      })
