Use Bellman-Ford Algorithm to find least cost path

The Bellman-Ford algorithm is descibed as a method for finding the least-cost path through a partially-connected network.  Using the C programming language, write a UNIX program which implements the Bellman-Ford algorithm to compute (i) the least-cost and (ii) the least cost path between any two nodes in a switched network.  Input data for your program will be stored in a text file which describes the link and link costs for all your nodes in the network (upto a maximum of 12 nodes).  The input has the following format:-  
Alternatively, the user may be prompted to input data into the program.

The output of the program should  display a table similar to:

 h     D2     Path     D3     Path     D4     Path     D5     Path     D6    Path

Please note that while I realise there are other questions to be answered, I would really appreciate an answer by Saturday 7 June.  Thanks in advance!
Well, this is a homework, and that's a first problem.

Second problem is that you didn't request any advice, you just asked for the code, which is not exactly what this forum is intended for: IMHO, one should buy for a ready code.

I don't mean to be rude, just trying to give you some reasons.

As a personal suggestion, try to write the code yourself, then feel free to ask here for any problem you may face.
