A void pointer is a pointer that has been explicitly declared to point to "void", which is an untyped data type in C. This means that a void pointer can point to any data type and can be cast to any data type. A generic pointer is a pointer that has been declared without a specific data type in mind. This means that a generic pointer can point to any data type but cannot be dereferenced without being cast to a specific data type first.
