Four lines in a row

I am currently working on the base four consecutive games, but I rather adhere to the logic behind it.

I currently have this multidimensional array that represents a board

[
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
]

0will represent an empty slot, 1and 2represent the player. So let you get this array after a while:

[
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0],
    [0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 2, 0],
    [0, 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 0]
]

How can I write logic to check if there are four in a row? Calculating it for horizontal and vertical looks pretty easy (although it still works out best), but how would this be done for diagonal lines?

It’s best to divide your search space into four:

  • verticals;
  • horizontal
  • right and down;
  • to the right and up.
