MATLAB GRAPH SHİFT A UNİT TO THE RIGHT.

When I run the codes written below, AK is where the graphic should start here; however, the graph starts from AZ. Here we can say that the graph is not where it should be, so the graph a unit has shifted to the right. How can I solve that problem. I mentioned the code snippet below.

a=linspace(0,16,51);
s = data.state_code;
b=s(1:3:51);

gdp9=data.gdp_growth_2009;
gdp12=data.gdp_growth_2012;
a4=[gdp9,gdp12];


stem(gdp9,'filled','LineStyle','-','LineWidth',1)
hold on
stem(gdp12, 'LineStyle','-' ,'LineWidth',1)


c={'#F00','#00F'};
colororder(c)

xticklabels(b)
xticks([0:16])
xlim([-.5 17.56])

legend('2009','2012','Location',"best")
title('Growth Rates in 2009 and 2012')
xlabel('States')
ylabel('Growth Rates')
grid on
hold off

Change these lines

xticks([1:17]) % start from 1
xlim([0.5 17.5])
