variables as GUI

how can i make my number variable as a gui text, without making for example( if the number = 1 then GUI.Label (Rect (100,100,50,50), "1", "box"); if its 2 GUI.Label (Rect (100,100,50,50), "2", "box"); ect) because the numbers will be unlimited, i've tried t$$anonymous$$s script;

var points = 0;

 if(points >= 0){

     GUI.Label (Rect (100,100,50,50), points, "box");

 }

but it comes up with errors... how can i make the gui print the var..... thanks for your time!
