weighted graphs java code the code for the shortest-path algorithm is among the most complex in this bookbut even so it' not beyond mere mortals we'll look first at helper class and then at the chief method that executes the algorithmpath()and finally at two methods called by path(to carry out specialized tasks the spath array and the distpar class as we've seenthe key data structure in the shortest-path algorithm is an array that keeps track of the minimum distances from the starting vertex to the other vertices (destination verticesduring the execution of the algorithmthese distances are changeduntil at the end they hold the actual shortest distances from the start in the example codethis array is called spath[(for shortest pathsas we've seenit' important to record not only the minimum distance from the starting vertex to each destination vertexbut also the path taken fortunatelythe entire path need not be explicitly stored it' only necessary to store the parent of the destination vertex the parent is the vertex reached just before the destination we've seen this in the workshop appletwhereif (dappears in the columnit means that the cheapest path from to is and is the last vertex before on this path there are several ways to keep track of the parent vertexbut we choose to combine the parent with the distance and put the resulting object into the spath[array we call this class of objects distpar (for distance-parentclass distpar /distance and parent /items stored in spath array public int distance/distance from start to this vertex public int parentvert/current parent of this vertex public distpar(int pvint ddistance dparentvert pv/constructor the path(method the path(method carries out the actual shortest-path algorithm it uses the distpar class and the vertex classwhich we saw in the mstw java program (listing the path(method is member of the graph classwhich we also saw in mstw java in somewhat different version
