FROM IDEA TO IMPLEMENTATION

Understand the approach.

Compare the documented approaches below. Brute force, better, and optimal versions appear where available; a direct exercise may need only one approach.

Print the current number, then recurse on the smaller prefix. Time and call-stack space: O(n).

import java.util.*;
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        ArrayList<Long> values = new ArrayList<>();
        while (in.hasNextLong()) values.add(in.nextLong());
        long[] a = values.stream().mapToLong(Long::longValue).toArray();
        long n = a[0];
        class R { void f(long k){if(k==0)return;System.out.print(k+" ");f(k-1);} } new R().f(n);
    }
}
