read file contents to a variable

Is there a reason the file() function makes an array? The readfile()
function is even more strange, it dumps the contents to the screen but
if you try to set it to a variable, it gives only the number of bytes
instead of the content. As best I can tell I'd need to use the file()
function then extract that back by adding each character onto the
another variable in a couple of loops which seems unnecessarilt complex
like I must be missing something.
