Installing Symfony,Composer

Question

Just to see if anyone can help me out, i'm sure its very very basic but I've only just flipped to mac from windows and learning the terminal basics

I am trying to install and use Symfony, i have installed homebrew, then i put in the composer command-

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

it downloads and installs but then it says i the path/ directory is not valid/ now i understand i need to make it, but i'm not sure where this will lie, and what is the command to make a director? is it mkdir -- ?

heres the terminal log-

Calvins-MacBook-Pro:~ calvin$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
#!/usr/bin/env php
All settings correct for using Composer
Downloading...
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Composer successfully installed to: /Users/calvin/composer.phar
Use it: php composer.phar
Calvins-MacBook-Pro:~ calvin$ mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
mv: rename composer.phar to /usr/local/bin/composer: No such file or directory
Calvins-MacBook-Pro:~ calvin$

https://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md#installation-linux-unix-osx

Note: In OSX Yosemite the /usr directory does not exist by default. If you receive the error "/usr/local/bin/composer: No such file or directory" then you must create /usr/local/bin/ manually before proceeding.

To create an directory you need to execute:

sudo mkdir <path>
