Well, in Matlab you would write

a(find(a >= 5 & a <= 10))=0;

The equivalent in IDL would be
a[where((a ge 5) and (a le 10))] = 0

Only that this fails miserably when no members satify the condition.
A typical case of idiotic semantics of IDL core functions. So we have
to write this as:

w = where((a ge 5) and (a le 10))
if w[0] ge 0 then a[w] = 0
