why ruby say 'no such file or diectory'? can anyboby explain it?

ARGF doesn't equal STDIN.

Quotation from the document:
* The global constant ARGF (also accessible as $<) provides an
* IO-like stream which allows access to all files mentioned on the
* command line (or STDIN if no files are mentioned).
