Hi everyone
I am trying to find shortest path tree using Dijkstra algorithm in java. I found a class that find the shortest path, but another problem is that i want the program read graph data from a textfile and use these data to find the shortest path tree and as a result print a table with every point of graph, his weight and the connection with previous point of graph.

Could someone help how to modify the actual code, to read the data, and print the table as required. Thanks to all of you!!

What I have tried:

Java
// A Java program for Dijkstra's single source shortest path algorithm. 
// The program is for adjacency matrix representation of the graph 
import java.util.*; 
import java.lang.*; 
import java.io.*; 

class ShortestPath { 
	// A utility function to find the vertex with minimum distance value, 
	// from the set of vertices not yet included in shortest path tree 
	static final int V = 9; 
	int minDistance(int dist[], Boolean sptSet[]) 
	{ 
		// Initialize min value 
		int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE, min_index = -1; 

		for (int v = 0; v < V; v++) 
			if (sptSet[v] == false && dist[v] <= min) { 
				min = dist[v]; 
				min_index = v; 
			} 

		return min_index; 
	} 

	// A utility function to print the constructed distance array 
	void printSolution(int dist[]) 
	{ 
		System.out.println("Vertex \t\t Distance from Source"); 
		for (int i = 0; i < V; i++) 
			System.out.println(i + " \t\t " + dist[i]); 
	} 

	// Function that implements Dijkstra's single source shortest path 
	// algorithm for a graph represented using adjacency matrix 
	// representation 
	void dijkstra(int graph[][], int src) 
	{ 
		int dist[] = new int[V]; // The output array. dist[i] will hold 
		// the shortest distance from src to i 

		// sptSet[i] will true if vertex i is included in shortest 
		// path tree or shortest distance from src to i is finalized 
		Boolean sptSet[] = new Boolean[V]; 

		// Initialize all distances as INFINITE and stpSet[] as false 
		for (int i = 0; i < V; i++) { 
			dist[i] = Integer.MAX_VALUE; 
			sptSet[i] = false; 
		} 

		// Distance of source vertex from itself is always 0 
		dist[src] = 0; 

		// Find shortest path for all vertices 
		for (int count = 0; count < V - 1; count++) { 
			// Pick the minimum distance vertex from the set of vertices 
			// not yet processed. u is always equal to src in first 
			// iteration. 
			int u = minDistance(dist, sptSet); 

			// Mark the picked vertex as processed 
			sptSet[u] = true; 

			// Update dist value of the adjacent vertices of the 
			// picked vertex. 
			for (int v = 0; v < V; v++) 

				// Update dist[v] only if is not in sptSet, there is an 
				// edge from u to v, and total weight of path from src to 
				// v through u is smaller than current value of dist[v] 
				if (!sptSet[v] && graph[u][v] != 0 && dist[u] != Integer.MAX_VALUE && dist[u] + graph[u][v] < dist[v]) 
					dist[v] = dist[u] + graph[u][v]; 
		} 

		// print the constructed distance array 
		printSolution(dist); 
	} 

	// Driver method 
	public static void main(String[] args) 
	{ 
		/* Let us create the example graph discussed above */
		int graph[][] = new int[][] { { 0, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 8, 0 }, 
									{ 4, 0, 8, 0, 0, 0, 0, 11, 0 }, 
									{ 0, 8, 0, 7, 0, 4, 0, 0, 2 }, 
									{ 0, 0, 7, 0, 9, 14, 0, 0, 0 }, 
									{ 0, 0, 0, 9, 0, 10, 0, 0, 0 }, 
									{ 0, 0, 4, 14, 10, 0, 2, 0, 0 }, 
									{ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 1, 6 }, 
									{ 8, 11, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 7 }, 
									{ 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 6, 7, 0 } }; 
		ShortestPath t = new ShortestPath(); 
		t.dijkstra(graph, 0); 
	} 
}

Reading data from a file will depend on its format. See Lesson: Basic I/O (The Java™ Tutorials > Essential Classes)[^] for examples of the different streams.

Are you sure it is your code ?
Found exact code at : Java Program for Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm | Greedy Algo-7 - GeeksforGeeks[^]

The problem with your question is that programming Dijkstra algorithm is much more complicated than reading data from file or printing what you want.
You show no attempt to solve your questions yourself, this look furiously like stealing work from others for your homework.
We do not do your HomeWork.
HomeWork is not set to test your skills at begging other people to do your work, it is set to make you think and to help your teacher to check your understanding of the courses you have taken and also the problems you have at applying them.
Any failure of you will help your teacher spot your weaknesses and set remedial actions.
Any failure of you will help you to learn what works and what don't, it is called 'trial and error' learning.
So, give it a try, reread your lessons and start working. If you are stuck on a specific problem, show your code and explain this exact problem, we might help.
