I have installed Python 3.4.4 on XPSP3 and am trying to work my way through this tutorial.

A Complete Tutorial on Ridge and Lasso Regression in Python

#Importing libraries. The same will be used throughout the article.
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import random
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline

I get an error on the last line. I am running this code in Idle Python 3.4.4 Shell...

Python 3.4.4 (v3.4.4:737efcadf5a6, Dec 20 2015, 19:28:18) [MSC v.1600 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> import random
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> %matplotlib inline
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

What am I doing wrong? Suggested reading?
TIA,
Mike
