I'm fairly new to coding and am trying to create a Tetris game. However, I've run into a few errors where I don't know the solution. Within the javascript I'm getting the error Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'classList/forEach' of undefined in two separate sections.
The error for "forEach" appears at "//draw/undraw tetros" and the error for classList appears at the bottom of the code at classList.add('tetromino').
If anyone knows how I can fix this, it would be much appreciated. :)
