How to correctly shorten this script using arrays and iterations

Question

Hullo elite coders of the universe, I am new to this coding buisness and was wondering how to use for loops and arrays to shorten the script below:

  var l1 : GUITexture; 
  var l2 : GUITexture;
  var l3 : GUITexture;    
  var l4 : GUITexture; 
  var l5 : GUITexture;
  var l6 : GUITexture;
  var l7 : GUITexture; 
  var l8 : GUITexture;
  var l9 : GUITexture;
  var l10 : GUITexture; 
  var l11 : GUITexture;
  var l12 : GUITexture;
  var l13 : GUITexture;
  var l14 : GUITexture;
  var l15 : GUITexture; 
  var l16 : GUITexture;  
  var l17 : GUITexture;
  var l18 : GUITexture;


   function Update () {

   for (var evt : Touch in Input.touches) 

    {

var l1T = l1.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l2T = l2.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l3T = l3.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l4T = l4.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l5T = l5.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l6T = l6.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l7T = l7.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l8T = l8.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l9T = l9.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l10T = l10.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l11T = l11.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l12T = l12.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l13T = l13.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l14T = l14.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l15T = l15.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l16T = l16.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l17T = l17.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

var l18T = l18.HitTest(Input.mousePosition);

if (evt.phase == TouchPhase.Stationary)

  { 
  if(l1T) 
  { 
  Application.LoadLevel(1);
  } 
  if(l2T) 
  {
  Application.LoadLevel(2);
  } 
  if(l3T) 
  {
 and so on.....
  } 

  } 

 

  }

HERE IS MY FEEBLE ATTEMPT ------------------->

var levels : int[];

levels = new float[15];

for(var i = 0; i < 14; i++) { if([i] == ) {

DO SHIT! }

Thats as far as I got :( ANy help would be rewarded with endless love and appreciation.

A few tweaks on the above answer works perfectly! Thanks bro.

 var myTextures : GUITexture[] = new GUITexture[18]; 
 
  function Update(){
 
 for(var i=0;i<myTextures.length;i++)
 {
     if(myTextures[i].HitTest(Input.mousePosition))
     {
     for (var evt : Touch in Input.touches) 
 
 {
      if (evt.phase == TouchPhase.Stationary) 
      Application.LoadLevel(i+1);
      }
      }
  }
  }

 var myTextures GUITexture[] = new GUITexture[18]; // you could set these in the inspector.
 
 function Update(){
 
     for(var i=0;i<myTextures.length;i++)
     {
         if(myTextures[i].HitTest(Input.mousePosition))
         {
 for (var evt : Touch in Input.touches) 
          {
          if (evt.phase == TouchPhase.Stationary) 
          Application.LoadLevel(i+1);
          }
        }
     }
 }

think that should work.. of course don't forget to assign the GUITextures to the array..

Thanks for the reply but I get two errors my friend:

$$anonymous$$ identifier 'evt'.
Internal compiler error: Array index is out of range..

Fixed the 1st error! Forgot to add the other for loop before the if statement:

   var myTextures : GUITexture[] = new GUITexture[18]; 

  function Update(){
 
 for(var i=0;i<myTextures.length;i++)
 {
     if(myTextures[i].HitTest(Input.mousePosition))
     {
     for (var evt : Touch in Input.touches) 

 {
      if (evt.phase == TouchPhase.Stationary) 
      Application.LoadLevel[i+1];
      }
      }
  }
  }
