Answer 1

You can also write an unpack function for a certain length:

let unpack4 tup4 ind =
    match ind, tup4 with
    | 0, (a,_,_,_) -> a
    | 1, (_,b,_,_) -> b
    | 2, (_,_,c,_) -> c
    | 3, (_,_,_,d) -> d
    | _, _ -> failwith (sprintf "Trying to access item %i of tuple with 4 entries." ind) 

or

let unpack4 tup4 ind =
    let (a, b, c, d) = tup4
    match ind with
    | 0 -> a
    | 1 -> b
    | 2 -> c
    | 3 -> d
    | _ -> failwith (sprintf "Trying to access item %i of tuple with 4 entries." ind)
