Hello all
I have been posting Android posts for months, now there is a slight change, Here is a simple C program to shutdown your computer.
Let’s start.
If you are using Windows XP then use this code.
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h> main(){ char ch; printf("Do you want to shutdown your computer now (y/n)\n"); scanf("%c",&ch); if (ch == 'y' || ch == 'Y') system("C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\shutdown -s"); return 0;} |
For Windows 7
#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h> main(){ char ch; printf("Do you want to shutdown your computer now (y/n)\n"); scanf("%c",&ch); if (ch == 'y' || ch == 'Y') system("C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\shutdown /s"); return 0;} |
In ubuntu
#include <stdio.h> int main() { system("shutdown -P now"); return 0;} |
Login as a root user for this to work otherwise you will get the message shutdown: Need to be root, now specifies that you want to shutdown immediately. ‘-P’ option specifies you want to power off your machine.
You can specify minutes as:
shutdown -P “number of minutes”.
