Hi @arbin.singh143,
Please post your data. An Excel Spreadsheet? What do you want the results to look like?

You haven't answered the question about the format of the data on which to base such a Script. Also, even if it's always 8 units horizontal and 0.6 units sloped, the length dimension on the angled part at the right end is not sufficient information -- an angle would also be needed. [But if it's always the same, and specific numbers such as those would be built into a Script, you may as well just draw it once, save it as a drawing file, and INSERT it when needed.]
