Answer / kiran kumar yakkala
generic pointer- generally "void" used for generic
no specification of data type
if u dont know the data type specification at the time
of any funciton or datatype declaration, generally go for

mind that "void" pointer never be incremented or
decremented, after type conversion only u should go for
that.
