Composer Installation on Server

How do I install composer on my web server? Is it a directory that I need to include?

I don't understand where the below code goes:

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

From: https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md

The command curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php gets the code located on https://getcomposer.org/installer and sends it to PHP, PHP then runs the code on the given page. The code on that page will produce a composer.phar file in your CWD.

The command mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer moves composer.phar to be file /usr/local/bin/composer

see:

These are Linux commands and are meant to be ran on a Linux server.
