After installing with pip install jupyter, terminal still cannot find jupyter notebook.

Ubuntu simply says command not found. Similar with ipython. Did pip not get install properly or something? How does Ubuntu know where to look for executables installed with pip?

you did not log out and log in ? It should be on your path to execute. If not, pip installed executables in .local, so in a terminal:

 ~/.local/bin/jupyter-notebook

should start notebook
