The curl command pulls data from a URL into your terminal. So you can actually go to cheat.sh in a web browser to see what the output would be (also wouldn't necessarily recommend doing this vs. blindly pasting commands, but in this case, perfectly safe!). It looks like a little Unix command helper tool.
