Matrix reading from file Dijkstra's Algorithm
<p>I have a shortest path algorithm in place and have fully understood its working, but instead of taking the matrix input inside the main function the code I want to read the matrix from a text file. I am a beginer and just trying to learn how this code works. I dont claim any ownership to the code give below.  </p>

<p>here is the entire code I'm using.</p>

<pre><code>// 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=5;
    int minDistance(int dist[], Boolean sptSet[])
    {
        // Initialize min value
        int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE, min_index=-1;

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

        return min_index;
    }

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

    // Funtion 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 &lt; 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 &lt; 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 &lt; 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] &amp;&amp; graph[u][v]!=0 &amp;&amp;
                        dist[u] != Integer.MAX_VALUE &amp;&amp;
                        dist[u]+graph[u][v] &lt; dist[v])
                    dist[v] = dist[u] + graph[u][v];
        }

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

    // Driver method
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
       int graph[][] = new int[][] {{0, 14, 0, 0, 0},
