How to change text in HTML element from p5.js?

Question

I'm just trying out p5.js. I'd like to change some HTML text (not on the p5 canvas) from p5. Something like:

score_display = createElement("text", "Score: 0");
...
score_display.nodeValue = "Score: " + score; // doesn't work

How do I do this? Thanks.

There is an .html() property in p5.js to change innerHTML of an element.

Admittedly difficult to find in their reference documentation. Perhaps they are deprecating? https://p5js.org/reference/#/p5.Element/html
