Recursion subset or subsequence

public class Main
{
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		substring("", "abc");
	}
	
	public static void substring(String p, String up) {
	    if(up.isEmpty()) {
	        System.out.println(p);
	        return;
	    }
	    
	    char ch = up.charAt(0);
	    
	   // take it or ignore it
	   substring(p+ch, up.substring(1));
	   substring(p, up.substring(1));
	}
}
