Create matrix indicating combinations of dummy variables

I have eight dummy variables (0-1 variables). I need to find all the possible combinations of these variables.
For example, v1-v8 are 0-1 variables and I want to the following result.
[0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0;
1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0;
0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0;
0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0;
0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0;
......
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1]
Therefore, this matrix should be a 256*8 matrix.
I am very new to MATLAB and do not know how to generate matrix using loop. Thanks for help!

Variations of this technique are often used, but this can exceed your memory if n gets too large:
n = 8;
result = dec2bin(0:2^n-1) - '0'; % the - '0' turns the dec2bin result into a double
