[Solved] I need to to use a for loop to execute println() multiple times [closed]

First you need to change 

while (sides > 3 || < 12 ){
        System.out.println("Please enter a number from 3 to 12: ")
    }

to 

while (sides < 3 || sides > 12) {
        System.out.println("Please enter a number from 3 to 12: ");
        sides = scan.nextInt();
    }

Then change this

for (sides >= 3 || <= 12){
                System.out.printf("\nA polygon with %d sides is called a(n) %s.", sides, poly);

to

for (int i = 0; i < sides; i++)
    System.out.printf("\nA polygon with %d sides is called a(n) %s.", sides, poly);

That will print the statement, the number of times there are sides.

Output:

Enter a number from 3 to 12: 1
Please enter a number from 3 to 12: 2
Please enter a number from 3 to 12: 3
A polygon with 3 sides is called a(n) Triangle.
A polygon with 3 sides is called a(n) Triangle.
A polygon with 3 sides is called a(n) Triangle.

This looks like homework though… You don’t want to get caught asking for answers on here…
