How to display the Timer Countdown on the Screen

//A simple countdown timer

var myTimer : float = 5.0;

function Update () {
 if(myTimer > 0){
  myTimer -= Time.deltaTime;
 }
 if(myTimer <= 0){
  Debug.Log("GAME OVER");
 }
}

This is a countdowntimer script I just want it to show it up on the screen while it counts down .

You probably also want to have this outside the Update() method, and have the logic run only when it's necessary. This can be done by using the InvokeRepeating method like this (C#):

float myTimer = 5.0f;

void Start() {
    InvokeRepeating( "DecreaseTime", 1, 1 ); // Called every second
}

void DecreaseTime() {
    myTimer--;
}

void onGUI() {
    GUI.Label(new Rect(10,10,400,90), "myTimer = " + myTimer );
}

Put it OnGUI() such as 

function OnGUI () {
    GUI.Label (Rect (10,10,150,100), myTimer.ToString());
}
