Live Tex Variable Updates the Whole Script Despite Run Option Set to "Current Section"

I've attached a live tex (challenge1) which finds the shortest path of a dag.

In my Bellman-ford function, I tried to use a slider control to vary the source node (s in the script) for the bellman-ford algorithm so that I could trace the shortest path from the source to the root using the highlight function.

My problem: everytime I update s, the whole script updates as well. I would like to use the randomly generated digraph I have and update only the source node.

I already set the "Run" settings to "current section" and "current section to end," but it still updates everything, generating a new digraph in the process. What am I missing?

I've attached my code for your review.

Thank you!

Your script does not have any sections in it, so the whole script runs each time. You must add a section break before your Bellman-Ford Algorithm to separate the two blocks of code into different sections.

You'll find Section Break in the "Section" grouping of the Live Editor tab's toolstrip.
