Can you help??

The question is { .add( classList.contains ("selected") } I don't understand why it gives me the error that { You didn't use the add() method }

app.js 
var anchor = document.querySelector("a");

//Add the class to the classList "selected"

anchor.classList("selected");


//Toggle the class "live"
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

  <a href="#">Home</a>

  <script src="app.js"></script>

</body>
</html>

You need to include the add() to classList.

anchor.classList.add('selected');
