These parameters may only be referenced; assignment to them is not allowed. * Expands to the positional parameters, starting from one. When the expansion occurs within double quotes, it expands to a sin- gle word with the value of each parameter separated by the first character of the IFS special variable. That is, "$*" is equiva- lent to "$1c$2c...", where c is the first character of the value of the IFS variable. If IFS is unset, the parameters are sepa- rated by spaces. If IFS is null, the parameters are joined without intervening separators. @ Expands to the positional parameters, starting from one. When the expansion occurs within double quotes, each parameter expands to a separate word. That is, "$@" is equivalent to "$1" "$2" ... When there are no positional parameters, "$@" and $@ expand to nothing (i.e., they are removed). Not $* expands into a single parameter...
