tokens are the basic buildings blocks which are constructed together to write a program. In context of C each and every smallest individual units in a C program are known as C tokens.

C Language has six types of tokens -

  1. Keywords (Ex: for, while),
  2. Identifiers (Ex: functionname, variablename),
  3. Constants (Ex: 5, 10)
  4. Strings (Ex: “QueryHome”),
  5. Special symbols (Ex: (), {}),
  6. Operators (Ex: +, /,-,*)
