                Companyname.appendChild(text);

                root.appendChild(Companyname);

                Element root1=doc.getDocumentElement();

                System.out.print("Name of the root created is:- "+root.getNodeName());

                

            }

        }

Output of the program:-

Name of the root created is:- Company
