Hello all, suppose I have a table: pairs = {{1, 3, 4}, {2, 4, 6}, {3, 6, 7}, {4, 1, 8}, {5, 3, 9}, {6, 2, 10}, {7, 5, 11}, {8, 2, 13}, {2, 3, 4}, {5, 6, 7}} how to select rows for which the 2nd column is between 3 and 5, AND the 3rd column is between 7 and 10? So I want to do something similar to this: Select[pairs, 5 >= #[[2]] >= 3 & AND 10 >= #[[3]] >= 7] but I just couldn't get it to work. what should I do? Thank you
