[Python] When the action is to move right in CartPole, it moves to the left side. Why it is...

In my experiments, I'm using OpenAI's CartPole-v1 environment. I need to set a state and then perform an action on that state. When I perform a specific action, it does not behave as expected. For example, when the action "Go Right" is used, it moves to the left.

I have a state s=[ 0.048 0.151 -0.037 -0.265] and an action: Go Right which is 1 according to document.

When I applied the action 1 to the s, I am getting the new state [-0.016 0.206 -0.029 -0.326]

It is supposed to move the right side.

Here is the code I tried:

env.reset()
state=[ 0.048 0.151 -0.037 -0.265]
env.state = env.unwrapped.state = state
s, reward, done, _ = env.step(action)
print(state,s)
