Question Display what is Typed after script

Hi

I need to display what is typed after I execute the script, ie: 05-hello-2 Sally

It should say
Hello, Sally

My code is:

echo "Hello, !"

exit 0

How do I get it to put whatever the user types after the execution into there so it says that after Hello

Thank you in advance

Search for script positional parameters. Should get you going.
