Yes, it was not clear at first glance that you are calling
populateNodeTable twice.  You call it once and throw away the result, then
you call it again and pass the result to tentativeDistance.  That's
probably not what you meant to do.

But look at the code within populateNodeTable.  You read the list from your
file, chop it into pieces at the commas, convert them to integers, and then
store them into a variable that you never use.  You never use the contents
of your file in this code.

How do those numbers say anything about the distances between nodes?
