%GRAPHPATH Compute shortest paths in a graph
%
%       [PATH,D] = GRAPHPATH(N,L,E)
%
% INPUT
%   N   Index of start node
%   L   Nx2 array with indices of all connected nodes in the graph
%   E   Vector with N corresponding distances
%       Default: all distances equal to 1
%
% OUTPUT
%   PATH Cell array with paths from node N to all other nodes
%   D    Cell array with edge length of paths in PATH
%
% DESCRIPTION
% The shortest paths are found from node N to all other nodes 
% in the graph defined by {L,E}
