First off, please explain what you are talking about better next time.

Second, What on earth are you talking about?

"f" is a file object, correct?

Are you trying to close a file by typing f.close or is the file closing 
when you type f.close?

If you are trying to close a file with f.close without parenthasies, 
then i _realy_ hope that this did not work, as f.close is nothing but a 
class method and should be treated like one except when called.
