Okay, I did that, now when I go
(let ((start (point-min)) ((end (point-max)))
        (message "The value is: %d %d" start end ))


I get
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-function (start (point-min)))
  ((start (point-min)) ((end ...)) (message "The value is: %d %d"
start end))
  eval(((start (point-min)) ((end ...)) (message "The value is: %d %d"
start en$
  eval-last-sexp-1(nil)
  eval-last-sexp(nil)
* call-interactively(eval-last-sexp)
