printAllDecimal

Language/Type: Java backtracking recursion

Write a recursive method named printAllDecimal that accepts an integer number of digits and prints all base-10 numbers that have exactly that many digits, in ascending order, one per line, with leading zeros in front as needed. For example, the call of printAllDecimal(3); should print: 

000
001
002
003
...
998
999

If the number of digits passed is 0 or negative, print no output. Your method must use recursion, but you can use a single for loop if necessary.

Method: Write a Java method as described, not a complete program or class.
