How does load/require/require_relative handle a file with no file extension?

Question

I have been using a tutorial that uses require with a file that does not have a file extension.

i.e.:

onefile.rb:

   require \"secondfile\"


secon

From the documentation:

Ruby tries adding “.rb”, “.so”, and so on to the name until found.
