Sahana,

The notation

df[a,b)]

is plain wrong.  I think you meant (but I may be mistaken)

df[a, b]

and I am not still sure if that would work in your example.   Have you
instead considered subset()?  E.g.,

subset(df, a <= 10 & b <= 10)

See ?subset for more details.

Also, "df" is a very bad name for your data.frame.  Check ?df to know why.

HTH,
Jorge.-
