MATLAB: Annotate multipl plots with text

annotate line plotannotate multiple plotsannotation;line plots

Hello everyone! I am required to annotate multiple line plots with the numbers as can be seen in the figure. I have put the numbers between the lines using 'plot edit toolbar', but I wish to do it in the code. I have tried many commands like annotation, text, ds2nfu, but all commands requires x and y coordinates for the location of annotation. I just need a number, which is unique to that particular line plot to be printed in the manner as can be seen in the figure. Is there any way wherein I can insert these numbers to the respective plots without extracting the location data? Because, I wont be aware of the x and y most of the times! Your inputs are welcome! Thank you in advance!

Well, you are aware of the x and y pos, because you can plot the line. You can do the following
 x = 1:10+randi(10);
 y = [rand*x; rand*x; rand*x; rand*x];
 plot(x,y')
 ind = round([0.5 0.55 0.6 0.65]*numel(x)); % specify the x positions
 labels = {'36' '40' '44' '42'}; % the labels of the lines
 for i =1:numel(ind)
   text(x(ind(i)), y(i, ind(i)), labels{i})
 end
