26,987 PointsWhat you are looking for is:
const body = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
because getElementsByTagName returns a collection of HTML elements. The body element is the very first element in the collection, which is why you use the [0] at the end of it. It's essentially an index of 0 in the entire collection.
Hope this helps you.
