Nope... there is a difference between semantic and syntax error. Semantic errors are the one where the commands written are not meaningful. For eg. In your case, x+y can not come to the left of the assignment operator z. Hence the correct statement is z=x+y. Whereas a syntax error is the one where a grammatical rule of c++ is violated. For eg. cin<< a is wrong.
