Baekmark,

For showing certain number of lines from the end you can modify the processData function as below for iterating over number of lines.

$(document).ready(function () {

    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "Data.csv",
        dataType: "text",
        success: function (data) { processData(data); }
    });

    function processData(allText) {
        var numberOfLinesFromEnd = 10;
        var allLinesArray = allText.split('\n');
        if (allLinesArray.length > 0) {
            var dataPoints = [];
            for (var i = Math.max(0, allLinesArray.length - numberOfLinesFromEnd) ; i <= allLinesArray.length - 1; i++) {
	        var rowData = allLinesArray[i].split(',');
	        if(rowData && rowData.length > 1)
	            dataPoints.push({ label: rowData[0], y: parseInt(rowData[1]) });
            }
            chart.options.data[0].dataPoints = dataPoints;
            chart.render();
        }
    }

            
    var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainer", {
