Rust pattern matching with .. Link to heading

Another syntax from Rust that I was not familiar with from other languages: using .. to do pattern matching to ignore remaning fields.

Below are some example usages:

// Define a struct with three fields
struct Person {
    name: String,
    age: u8,
    occupation: String,
}

// Create an instance of Person
let alice = Person {
    name: "Alice".to_string(),
    age: 25,
    occupation: "Software Engineer".to_string(),
};

// Use an if let expression to check the value of alice
if let Person { name, age, .. } = alice {
    // Print the name and age fields
    println!("Name: {}, Age: {}", name, age);
}
// Define a tuple with four elements
let numbers = (1, 2, 3, 4);

// Use a match expression to check the value of numbers
match numbers {
    // Match the first and last elements and ignore the rest
    (first, .., last) => println!("First: {}, Last: {}", first, last),
}

This feature is probably not a necessity but can be useful in simplyfing the code a bit.
