Assign Integer Values to Button Array

Is there a way to assign an integer value based on the Button Text to each UI button in an array and then check for that value OnClick() for valid move based on the value assigned ?

basically

Code (CSharp):

1. for (int i = 0; i < buttons.Length; i++)
2.         {
3.             buttons[i].interactable = true;
4.             buttons[i].GetComponent<Image>().sprite = null;
5.             // some code here to assign an integer value to each button in the array.  int variable is boardSquareValue;
6.  
7.  
8.         }

Something like button.Text = int.TryParse(in [some variable] ,out variable); <---- This didnt work obviously.

I've been stuck on this for days.

Thanks

 

Do you know why it doesnt work? Can you post the code you tried? That should work. Works for me.

 

I figured it out. I forgot I removed the script from some of the buttons *FacePalm*

One last small tiny issue and this thing will be done codewise. Posted new thread if you don't mind looking. Thank you for the response.
