[docs]class StackedEnsembleClassifier(StackedEnsembleBase):
    """Stacked Ensemble Classifier.

    Arguments:
        final_estimator (Estimator or subclass): The classifier used to combine the base estimators. If None, uses ElasticNetClassifier.
        n_jobs (int or None): Integer describing level of parallelism used for pipelines. None and 1 are equivalent.
            If set to -1, all CPUs are used. For n_jobs below -1, (n_cpus + 1 + n_jobs) are used. Defaults to -1.
            - Note: there could be some multi-process errors thrown for values of `n_jobs != 1`. If this is the case, please use `n_jobs = 1`.
        random_seed (int): Seed for the random number generator. Defaults to 0.

        >>> from evalml.pipelines.component_graph import ComponentGraph
        >>> from evalml.pipelines.components.estimators.classifiers.decision_tree_classifier import DecisionTreeClassifier
        >>> from evalml.pipelines.components.estimators.classifiers.elasticnet_classifier import ElasticNetClassifier
