if main() were a pointer, then
char c()
{
  return '1';
}

int main()
{
printf("%d",sizeof(c()));
}
would also have shown 4, but it shows 1. I think there is a hidden concept.

If we change the return type of c() to void, it shows an error.
But instead of c(), we use main() with void as return type, it shows 4.

Whats happening here ?
