engine : {'python', 'numexpr'}, optional, default None

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.
- ``'numexpr'`` : This is the default engine when ``numexpr`` is installed.
Evaluates pandas objects using numexpr for large speed ups in complex
