Can you give me an overall idea how to identify these type of errors when given a code snippet .

Lexical Error
Syntax Error
Semantic Error

I only know how to find Syntax error. ie like semicolon missing after statement , incorrect use of for loops etc ...
ut , How to find other types of error ?

In which phase of the compiler below errors are detected ?
1. Declaring an array with a floating point subscript : e.g int a[2.8] ; In my opinion ,it should be a syntax error : How will the parse tree be generated for this ,because in between the square brackets we can have an identifier ... the identifier is too long , then is this any type of error ?If Yes , then in which phase is this detected ?
