Can I assign each value in an array to separate variables in one line in C#? Here's an example in Ruby code of what I want:

irb(main):001:0> str1, str2 = ["hey", "now"]
=> ["hey", "now"]
irb(main):002:0> str1
=> "hey"
irb(main):003:0> str2
=> "now"

I'm not sure if what I'm wanting is possible in C#.

Edit: for those suggesting I just assign the strings "hey" and "now" to variables, that's not what I want. Imagine the following:

irb(main):004:0> val1, val2 = get_two_values()
=> ["hey", "now"]
irb(main):005:0> val1
=> "hey"
irb(main):006:0> val2
=> "now"

Now the fact that the method get_two_values returned strings "hey" and "now" is arbitrary. In fact it could return any two values, they don't even have to be strings.
