We do not do your homework: it is set for a reason. It is there so that you think about what you have been told, and try to understand it. It is also there so that your tutor can identify areas where you are weak, and focus more attention on remedial action.

Try it yourself, you may find it is not as difficult as you think!

First read solution 1 and then try.. :)

C++

#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;
}

Solution 2

To simplest way is possibly using system[^] call to issue the shutdown command appropriate for your operative system.
for instance

C

system("shutdown -h now");

on Linux
(Please note: you must have the appropriate privileges, in order to successfully issue the command).
