I want to read a csv file stored locally on my machine, and assign each value to a javascript variable.

How do I go about doing this in JS?

For a start, you'll need a http server running on your computer, which can server the resource (csv file) you need, with CORS enabled, unless it also serves the webpage that is reading the csv file – Jaromanda X Sep 13 '15 at 14:25
