Java 8 coding challenge: Palindromic String

Problem:

You have been given a String SS. You need to find and print whether this string is a palindrome or not. If yes, print "YES" (without quotes), else print "NO" (without quotes).
Input Format
The first and only line of input contains the String SS. The String shall consist of lowercase English alphabets only.
Output Format
Print the required answer on a single line.
Constraints 1|S|1001≤|S|≤100
Note
String SS consists of lowercase English Alphabets only.
SAMPLE INPUT
 
 
aba
SAMPLE OUTPUT
 
 
YES

Code:

/* IMPORTANT: Multiple classes and nested static classes are supported */
 
/*
 * uncomment this if you want to read input.
//imports for BufferedReader
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
*/
//import for Scanner and other utility classes
import java.util.*;
 
 
class TestClass {
 public static void main(String args[] ) throws Exception {
 /*
 * Read input from stdin and provide input before running
 * Use either of these methods for input
 
 //BufferedReader
 BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
 String line = br.readLine();
 int N = Integer.parseInt(line);
 */
 //Scanner
 Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
 String S = s.nextLine();
 String result="";
 
 for (int i = S.length()-1; i >=0; i--) {
 result=result+S.substring(i,i+1);
 }
 if(result.equals(S)){
 System.out.println("YES");
 }
 else{
 System.out.println("NO");
 }
 }
}

Saltstack and Vault integration

First install and configure vault using this tutorial: https://apassionatechie.wordpress.com/2017/03/05/hashicorp-vault/ Use the latest version of vault. Then install salt using the steps given here: https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/topics/installation/ If you face any issues then refer these links: https://apassionatechie.wordpress.com/2017/07/31/salt-issues/ https://apassionatechie.wordpress.com/2017/08/03/salt-stack-formulas/ Now let's integrate vault and salt so that we can access vault secrets from inside salt state. First let's add some key values into our vault. vault write secret/ssh/user1 password="abc123" Then you can check it by reading: vault read secret/ssh/user1 To allow salt to access your secrets you must firstly create a policy as follows: salt-policy.hcl [code] path "secret/*" { capabilities = ["read", "list"] } path "auth/*" { capabilities = ["read", "list","sudo",...

How to grep the output of cURL?

curl writes the output to stderr, so redirect that and also suppress the progress: curl - v -- silent https :// google . com / 2 >& 1 | grep expire The reason why  curl  writes the information to stderr is so you can do: curl <url> | someprgram  without that information clobbering the input of  someprogram It is possible to use  --stderr -  as parameter, to redirect the output from stderr (default) to stdout. With this option you also should use  --silent  to suppress the progress bar. $ curl - v -- silent https :// google . com / -- stderr - | grep expire * expire date : 2015 - 09 - 01 00 : 00 : 00 GMT
