Basically I need to setup a conditional loop to have the game run up to 10 times and then have it display the results for both the computer and user. I have my display function in the works but how could i setup the loop or counter to run the match 10 times? Any help would be appreciated. Below is my entire code thus far. i've trimmed out alot of the if/else statements for pure strings/functions.

// Create object for reading from the keyboard.
    static Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    // Class Contastant to simplify comparisons.
    static final String ROCK = "Rock";
    static final String PAPER = "Paper";
    static final String SCISSORS = "Scissors";
    

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Get choices
        String computerChoice = getComputerChoice();
        String humanChoice = getHumanChoice();

        // Display the choices that were made
        System.out.println("Computer Chose: " + computerChoice);
        System.out.println("Human Chose: " + humanChoice);

        // Computer the winner
        String winner = computeWinner(humanChoice, computerChoice);

        // Display the winner
        System.out.println("The Winner is: " + winner);
    }

    // Calculate the winner from the computer and human choices.
    private static String computeWinner(String humanChoice, String computerChoice) {
        String winner;

        // A chain of nested if/else statements.  Notice that the tie is only
        // checked once. (If the choices are the same, it doesn't matter what
        // was specifically chosen!)
        if (humanChoice.equalsIgnoreCase(computerChoice)) {
            winner = "Game is a Tie!";
        } else if (humanChoice.equalsIgnoreCase(ROCK)) {
            if (computerChoice.equals(SCISSORS)) {
                winner = "Human";
            } else {
                winner = "Computer";
            }
        } else if (humanChoice.equalsIgnoreCase(PAPER)) {
            if (computerChoice.equals(ROCK)) {
                winner = "Human";
            } else {
                winner = "Computer";
            }
        } else if (humanChoice.equalsIgnoreCase(SCISSORS)) {
            if (computerChoice.equals(PAPER)) {
                winner = "Human";
            } else {
                winner = "Computer";
            }
        } else {
            winner = "There are no winners with invalid input!";
        }

        return winner;
    }

    // Get the computer's choice
    private static String getComputerChoice() {
        // Get a random number between 0 and 2
        int randomValue = (int) (Math.random() * 3.0);

        String computerChoice;

        if (randomValue == 0) {
            computerChoice = ROCK;
        } else if (randomValue == 1) {
            computerChoice = PAPER;
        } else {
            computerChoice = SCISSORS;
        }

        return computerChoice;
    }

    // Get the human's choice
    private static String getHumanChoice() {
    System.out.print("Please enter Rock, Scissor, or Paper: ");
    String inString = input.nextLine();
    if (inString.equalsIgnoreCase("rock") || inString.equalsIgnoreCase("paper") ||
          inString.equalsIgnoreCase("scissor")){
        return inString;
    }
    else{
        System.out.print("Invalid entry, ");
        return getHumanChoice();
    }
}
	}
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
  // stuff here will be executed 10 times
}
