Here are a few examples of programs that crash R.

# use tilde expansion (tested on windows and linux)
library(Andromeda)
bigData <- andromeda(cars = cars)
saveAndromeda(bigData, "~/bigData.zip")
# Crash
# pass a path that does not exist (tested on windows)
library(Andromeda)
bigData <- andromeda(cars = cars)
saveAndromeda(bigData, "C:/some/nonexistant/path/bigData.zip")
# Crash
# use a path that the user does not have write access to (tested on linux)
library(Andromeda)
bigData <- andromeda(cars = cars)
saveAndromeda(bigData, "/home/otheruser/bigData.zip")
# Crash
