I assume you're talking about a network.
On a token network, all of the computers wait to send data until they have the token. The token is a piece of data that travels around the network (picture all of the computers set up in a circle) giving each one a chance to send their data. After that computer has sent the data, the token moves on to the next.
It prevents data collision on the network.

Advantages of token ring: A point to point digital simple engineering, standard twisted pair medium is economical and easy to install, easily detected and corrected in case of cable failure, short frames as no padding of data is required in frame, works best even with heavy load. Disadvantages are: Require a monitor function, substantial delay in cases of low load, can require more wire to run than a bus architecture.
The parallel equation works out as: 4y = 3x+1 which can be expressed in the form of 3x-4y+1 = 0
A straight line passing from side to side going through the middle of a circle or sphere is a diameter.

token passing
In a ring topology, the access method used is typically token passing. In this method, a token is passed around the ring from one node to the next, allowing nodes to transmit data when they possess the token. This helps in controlling and managing the network traffic in a structured manner.
Token passing
The token indicates current "ownership" of the ring, in that only one client at a time can have access to the network. If you don't have the token you can't do anything on the network. It also indicates the status of the ring, whether it is in use, available to transmit on, health status, etc.

By rolling the dice, moving your token around the board, and passing the "Go" corner.
