Does C# 7 have array/enumerable destructuring?

Question

In Javascript ES6, you are able to destructure arrays like this:

const [a,b,...rest] = someArray;

where a is the first element

Answer 1

Really quick: No.

C# does not support destructuring for Arrays yet.

Currently, I cannot find any information of this on the roadmap, either. Seems like there will be a lot of waiting involved until we get this syntactic sugar by default.

As @Nekeniehl added in the comments, it can be implemented though: gist.github.com/waf/280152ab42aa92a85b79d6dbc812e68a
