NBA Salary Cap FAQ
If a team is below the cap, then their Disabled Player, Bi-Annual, Mid-Level and/or Traded Player exceptions are added to their team salary, and the league treats the team as though they are over the cap.

Perl FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions: C Language (abridged)
I'm trying to sort an array of strings with qsort(), using strcmp() as the comparison function, but it's not working. You'll have to write a "helper" comparison function which takes two generic pointer arguments, converts them to char **, and dereferences them, yielding char *'s which can be usefully compared.
