Moving diagonally will entail moving the same number of squares both horizontally and vertically. In a 2D array, you’d just need to check that abs(old[x] - current[x]) === abs(old[y] - current[y]). In a 1D array like you’ve got, you’ll need to compute the row (Math.trunc(position / 8)) for the y position and the column (position % 8) and do the same calculation – making sure the number of rows traversed and the number of columns traversed are the same.

Problem :
I’m doing a chess game and I need do movement bishop but I can’t. We choose the figures positions and it should work in case of any layout. Here is my code.
This is JS code. Here I create board, give each box id and add white bishop which position choose I by prompt. Now I can’t continue. I must find the step of the bishop it’s so hard, I try different ways but it didn’t work.
Here is how I code my board. Bishops can move only diagonally. Additionally here is html code, I give some styles for board numbers and letters.
var ChessArray = ["k" , "A8", "A7", "A6", "A5" , "A4" , "A3" , "A2" , "A1",
"B8", "B7", "B6", "B5" , "B4" , "B3" , "B2" , "B1",
"C8", "C7", "C6", "C5" , "C4" , "C3" , "C2" , "C1",
"D8", "D7", "D6", "D5" , "D4" , "D3" , "D2" , "D1",
"E8", "E7", "E6", "E5" , "E4" , "E3" , "E2" , "E1" ,
"F8", "F7", "F6", "F5" , "F4" , "F3" , "F2" , "F1",
"G8", "G7", "G6", "G5" , "G4" , "G3" , "G2" , "G1",
"H8", "H7", "H6", "H5" , "H4" , "H3" , "H2" , "H1"]
// create board
var board = document.getElementById("mainChessBoard");
for (var i=0; i< ChessArray.length-1; i++){
board.appendChild(document.createElement("div")).style.backgroundColor = parseInt((i / 8) + i) % 2 == 0 ? '#ababab' : 'white';
}
// give id
for (var i=0; i<8; i++){
board.children[i].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+1]);
board.children[i+8].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+2]);
board.children[i+16].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+3]);
board.children[i+24].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+4]);
board.children[i+32].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+5]);
board.children[i+40].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+6]);
board.children[i+48].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+7]);
board.children[i+56].setAttribute("id" , ChessArray[8*i+8]);
}
// // bishop
var white_bishop = prompt("please enter position of white bishop",);
function Function_for_bishop() {
var t=0;
for ( i=0; i< ChessArray.length; i++){
if ( ChessArray[i] == white_bishop ){
t += 1;
}
}
if ((t == 0)){
prompt("FALSE",);
}
else {
document.getElementById(white_bishop).innerHTML = "♗" ;
document.getElementById(white_bishop).style.fontSize = "80px";
alert("Bishop")
}
}
