shutdown pc in matlab

To shutdown your Windows PC using MATLAB, you can use the system command in MATLAB to execute the "shutdown" command in the command prompt. Here's an example code:

main.m
% shutdown computer after 60 seconds
system('shutdown /s /t 60');
66 chars
3 lines

The above code will execute the "shutdown /s /t 60" command in the command prompt, which will shut down the computer after 60 seconds.

Here's a breakdown of the command used:

• shutdown: the command used to shut down the computer
• /s: the option to specify that you want to shut down the computer
• /t: the option to specify the time (in seconds) until the shutdown happens
• 60: the time (in seconds) until the shutdown happens

You can adjust the time delay to suit your needs. You can also add a message to be displayed before the shutdown happens by using the /c option followed by the message in quotes.
