restart the rsession using R code

Question

Is there any R code to restart the rsession? I am usually doing this by pressing cntrl+shift+0. But now want to do this in my code. how can i do this?

The correct way is to do: invisible(.rs.restartR()) – MarcG Jul 09 '21 at 08:54 — MarcG, Jul 09 '21 at 08:54

Depending on what you are actually trying to accomplish, you may simply want something like

  rm(list=ls())

Note: be careful this code actually delete your entire work/variable/data

For the record, this is quite different from restarting an R session. Following this answer, packages are not unloaded, variables whose names start with `.` are not deleted, any mutable state of packages is not reset, and any startup scripts are not rerun. – drhagen Aug 02 '16 at 18:15
