+        parser : {'pandas', 'python'}, default 'pandas'
+            The parser to use to construct the syntax tree from the expression. The
+            default of ``'pandas'`` parses code slightly different than standard
+            Python. Alternatively, you can parse an expression using the

+
+            The engine used to evaluate the expression. Supported engines are
+
+            - None : tries to use ``numexpr``, falls back to ``python``
+            - ``'numexpr'`` : This default engine evaluates pandas objects using
+              numexpr for large speed ups in complex expressions with large frames.
+            - ``'python'`` : Performs operations as if you had ``eval``'d in top
+              level python. This engine is generally not that useful.
+
+            More backends may be available in the future.
+        local_dict : dict or None, optional
+            A dictionary of local variables, taken from locals() by default.

+            A dictionary of global variables, taken from globals() by default.
+        resolvers : list of dict-like or None, optional
+            A list of objects implementing the ``__getitem__`` special method that
+            you can use to inject an additional collection of namespaces to use for
+            variable lookup. For example, this is used in the
+            :meth:`~DataFrame.query` method to inject the
+            ``DataFrame.index`` and ``DataFrame.columns``
+            variables that refer to their respective :class:`~pandas.DataFrame`
+            instance attributes.
+        level : int, optional
+            The number of prior stack frames to traverse and add to the current
+            scope. Most users will **not** need to change this parameter.
