What is c code for token in programming?

Hi,

When we say token in programming language, we are talking about a single element. It is a string of characters that we used in programming. It is actually the smallest set of program that programmers use.

There are six C tokens that programmer’s use: these are the Keywords, Identifiers, separators, literals, comments and operators.

Now, C programming is a small size, general purpose programming language that is developed by Ken Thompson in 1970’s. This is the programming language that c++ was based and eventually Java. Unlike C, Java in a high level language.

Here is a link to a pdf file that will thoroughly guide you with the C programming. Good luck!
