A token in C, and in other languages as well, is the largest set of consecutive characters that matches the rules for construction of a parse-able unit of the language.

For instance, in the statement a = b+c; the tokens are a, =, b, +, c, and ;.

The reason I say "largest set" is to define what happens if more than one rule matches.

For instance, in the statement a = b+++c; the tokens are a, =, b, ++, +, c, and ;, and not a, =, b, +, ++, c, and ;. If you mean the other way around, you need to use parentheses.
