-------------------- code --------
public int[][] grid =

{2,3,4,5,6,7,7,0},

8x8, we will be using only 7x7 0's will not be scanned
// this will check the columns for 3 match or more
private static void checkCol(int pRow) {
// you can loop over and over by passing the row to search on
int match =0;
for(int i=0; i < 7; i++){
if(grid[pRow][i] == grid[pRow][i+1]){
// increase match found by 1
match ++;
// u can use a array list to store matched grid points
}else{
// 2 = 3 matched , 3 = 4 matched and so on
if(match >=2){
int f = match;
f++;
System.out.print("found "+f);
}
break; // break loop
}
match = 0;
}
}
}
// this will check the rows for 3 match or more , same as above just little changes
private static void checkRow(int pCol) {
int match =0;
for(int i=0; i < 7; i++){
if(grid[i][pCol] == grid[i+1][pCol]){
// increase match found by 1
match ++;
// u can use a array list to store matched grid points
}else{
// 2 = 3 matched , 3 = 4 matched and so on
if(match >=2){
int f = match;
f++;
System.out.print("found "+f);
}
break; // break loop
}
match = 0;
}
}
}
