The constructor opens the file.  There are several constructors available for 
ofstream objects.  The one used above opens the named file.
 RS> Isn't it a bit sloppy not closing explicitly?
No.  "Sloppy" implies the possibility of a "leak" of some form.  This is the 
case if one were to use a `FILE *' variable and call fopen() but forget to 
call fclose() before the variable went out of scope.  This doesn't happen 
with iostreams in C++ because by design the destructor cleans up and closes 
the underlying file.
