I know opening a file and passing a block will execute the block in context
of the file and then close the file.

Example:

File.open("somefile.txt") {|f| the_text = f.read }

After running, somefile.txt will be closed.

I'm wondering if it's ok to read a file like this:

the_text = File.open("somefile.txt").read

Will that close automatically?  If not, how would I go about closing it?

Thanks,
Sam
