Overview

File class in ruby provides a method that returns true if a given file exists and returns false if a given false doesn’t exist

Here is the signature of this method

exist?(file_name) → true or false

Example

Below is the program for the same.

File.open("temp.txt", "w") do |f|     
    f.write("Test")   
  end
  
puts File.exist?('temp.txt')

Output

true
