Scripting in SolidWorks

Scripting in SolidWorks

Scripting in SolidWorks

(OP)
Before I put some time aside to go through the tutorials, I'd like to know if the following is possible using the scripting API?

1) Create a part
2) Place Part in an assembly such that the centroid of that part is placed at a specific coordinate
3) Save & close part (there will be a lot of parts generated so I'm anticipating some memory issues)
4) Repeat until exit condition
5) Save assembly

If the above is in principle possible then I can justify the time out of regular shenanigans.

Thanks ArtemTat for the links.
