<?php
// Function to calculate distance between two lat/long points using Haversine formula
function haversineDistance($lat1, $lon1, $lat2, $lon2, $radius = 6371) {
    $lat1 = deg2rad($lat1);
    $lon1 = deg2rad($lon1);
    $lat2 = deg2rad($lat2);
    $lon2 = deg2rad($lon2);

    $dlat = $lat2 - $lat1;
    $dlon = $lon2 - $lon1;

    $a = sin($dlat / 2) * sin($dlat / 2) +
        cos($lat1) * cos($lat2) * sin($dlon / 2) * sin($dlon / 2);

    $c = 2 * atan2(sqrt($a), sqrt(1 - $a));

    return $radius * $c; // Distance in kilometers
}

// Define user location
$userLat = 40.7128; // Example latitude (New York City)
$userLon = -74.0060; // Example longitude (New York City)

// Define radius in kilometers
$radius = 10; // 10 km

// List of job locations (example data)
$jobs = [
    ['id' => 1, 'title' => 'Software Engineer', 'lat' => 40.730610, 'lon' => -73.935242], // New York
    ['id' => 2, 'title' => 'Data Scientist', 'lat' => 40.748817, 'lon' => -73.985428], // Empire State Building
    ['id' => 3, 'title' => 'Product Manager', 'lat' => 40.7831, 'lon' => -73.9712], // Central Park
    ['id' => 4, 'title' => 'Marketing Specialist', 'lat' => 41.0082, 'lon' => 28.9784], // Istanbul (far away)
];

// Filter jobs within the specified radius
$filteredJobs = array_filter($jobs, function ($job) use ($userLat, $userLon, $radius) {
    $distance = haversineDistance($userLat, $userLon, $job['lat'], $job['lon']);
    return $distance <= $radius; // Include job if within radius
});

// Display filtered jobs
foreach ($filteredJobs as $job) {
    echo "Job ID: {$job['id']}, Title: {$job['title']}, Location Distance: " . round(haversineDistance($userLat, $userLon, $job['lat'], $job['lon']), 2) . " km\n";
