I was wondering whether there is a way to shut down the PC after some process has ended in R?

somefunction()
Sys.shut.down()

Answer 1

You can try running a system command like this (for windows only):

system("shutdown -f -t 1")

For Mac/Linux try (permissions might not allow this, though):

system("shutdown -h now")

Warning: This command will force close all running processes…
