I tried to make a simple fun system with increasing and decreasing numbers with input, but it doesnt work

I tried the script and its working well for the first 2 functions, but then when I added the third one, the entire page just doesn’t work. Can I know why and how to fix?

I am a beginner Javascripter and I still need practices so can you guys explain someway suitable for my level?

let a = 0,
  b = 1

function inc() {
  a += b
  document.getElementById("x").innerHTML = "x" + " " + "=" + " " + a;
};

function dec() {
  a -= b
  document.getElementById("x").innerHTML = "x" + " " + "=" + " " + a;
};

function input() {
  if (document.getElementById("input").innerHTML == null) {

  } else {
    b = Number(document.getElementById("input").innerHTML);
  };
};
body {
  background-color: powderblue;
}

>Solution :

Use value instead of innerHTML for input

function input() {
  if (document.getElementById("input").value != null){
    b = Number(document.getElementById("input").value);
  };
};
