Plotting inline in matplotlib

I am using the terminal in jupyter and am trying to plot with matplotlib. I need to plot inline and so i use %matplotlib inline but i am getting the following error:

>>> %matplotlib inline
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    %matplotlib inline
    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Why am i getting this error? Is it because it is a terminal and not jupyter notebook type environment? I had tried the same code in jupyter notebook and it did not return any errors.

You should run ipython instead of python in the Jupyter terminal. Then you can execute any magic command.
