i parsing string int a[10]; instead of parsing, execute yyerror() every time. code parses int a; single statement char a; also.

make sure lexer returns '[' when sees open bracket.

mixing single-quoted tokens '[' , named tokens colon confusing , suggests copy-and-pasting different sources, rather designing program. since lexer , parser must agree on handling of tokens, form of creating programs error-prone. recommend using single-quoted single-character tokens throughout, since more readable , simplifies lexer.

with respect x2, there difference between '[' , "[". want first one. same problem found in stmt2, uses​ "(" , ")" instead of single-quoted versions.
