rowend=6
columnstart=8
columnend=8

b=0

while(pieces[rowStart-b][columnStart]==null && pieces[rowStart-b][columnStart]!=pieces[rowEnd][columnEnd] && pieces[rowEnd][columnEnd]==null){ // CHECKS THE UPPER ROW.

What is the question?

To debug your code print out the value of this expression, of each of its sub expressions and of all of its variables:

(pieces[rowStart-b][columnStart]==null && pieces[rowStart-b][columnStart]!=pieces[rowEnd][columnEnd] && pieces[rowEnd][columnEnd]==null)

no, i got the idea.

pieces[rowStart-b][columnStart]==null

i need to reduce rowStart by 1
cause b is 0
and
rowStart points at an object that i am trying to point at
so i need to come up with something like that. although it did give me an outofboundarray error. i have to try to rewrite the thing again.
pieces[rowStart-1-b][columnStart]==null
