Is it defined behaviour that all files get implicitly closed when not assigning them?
Like: def writeFile(fName, foo): open(fName, 'w').write(process(foo)) compared to: def writeFile(fName, foo): fileobj = open(fName, 'w') fileobj.write(process(foo)) fileobj.close() Which one is the 'official' recommended way? Thomas -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
