How to represent each grid numerically?

I have made square grids in the entire MATLAB workspace having 0.5 spacing. How can i represent those grids in number? Counting must start from 1 and in increasing order from bottom left to right and then go to upper line respectively

Can you more specific please?
Are you looking for insert number inside the grid elements?
I don"t want to display numbers inside the grid, instead a serially increasing number is to be assigned to each grid and that number is to be stored in veriable or matrix form.

% Inputs
xrng = [0,9]; % [left, right] bound of x axis
yrng = [0,8]; % [lower, upper] bound of y axis
gridInt = 0.5; % grid spacing
% Compute the rest
nBlocks = floor([diff(xrng), diff(yrng)] ./ gridInt); % number of complete grid squares for [x,y] axes
gridNumbers = flipud(reshape(1:prod(nBlocks), nBlocks)');
gridNumbers is a matrix of grid block counts starting at the bottom, left corner and increasing rightward then upward.
