Subject: What does o2 sensor do?

HI All,
I recently found that my o2 sensor was disconnected (the sensor that sticks
into the catalytic convertor). What is the function of this sensor?  The
van, and 87 Westy, drove fine except for one symptom. (I don't want to say
what the symptom was because I don't want it to influence your responses.)
 Thanks in advance.
John
