Well you could do some research and find a site that tells you what
createElement does. In this case it creates a <p> element that you can
hook into the DOM where you want it, in this case as a child element of
a <div> element.

(doubtless PointyHead will say that's wrong and it does something else,
but the above explanation is good enough).
