void does not have return type.

Void is the type of data. That tells to the user that function does not return any value. And here in the program the void is used as a variable so C language does not allow in these kinds of declaration.

For Void there is no memory size defined for eg in 'int' data type the size is 2 byte, but for void it is not defined so we can not assign any value to void type.

Void is a return type of function not for variable.

We can not define a variable with void type. Only we can define pointer of void type.

What is the meaning of int main(). I can't understand the exact meaning. Please any one help me.

It is an error because void is not a data type.

Size of v is 0, since it is of type void which returns empty value.
