How are cylinders numbered?

Hopefully this is a simple question!

I have a 2004 Civic LX coupe and I am about to adjust the valves. I just want to make sure I do them in the correct order, so I wanted to clarify how the cylinders are numbered. Is cylinder number 1 on the passenger side, and cylinder number 4 on the driver side?

Thanks!

Looking down at the bay 4-3-2-1. Number one is on the driver's side.
