I'll rectify it all today! Let me know about the white spaces problem, I'm
not getting where exactly white spaces are there! Are you talking about the
extra line? After each quote?

I think he's talking about trailing whitespace on line 32.

I'm not sure that this multi-line is valid yaml. Did you check it?

Good programmers suspect that there's always room for improvement, and they look for it. Bad programmers are complacent.
Good programmers learn and get better. Good programmers are mindful that there are many ways that things can be better: shorter code, more readable and maintainable code, neater code, a more elegant expression of the algorithm, a lower bug count, or simply producing code faster.
