mysqladmin is not a command that you enter at the mysql> prompt from
within the mysql program. It's a separate program that you invoke
from the DOS prompt.
You can either create the database from within mysql like this:
mysql> CREATE DATABASE database01;
or from the command line using mysqladmin like this:
C:\> mysqladmin create database01
