         to the operator in SQL expressions. This integer value acts as a hint
         for the SQL compiler to know when explicit parenthesis should be
         rendered around a particular operation. A lower number will cause the

         of 100 will be higher or equal to all operators, and -100 will be
         lower than or equal to all operators.

         as a "comparison" operator, that is which evaluates to a boolean
         true/false value, like ``==``, ``>``, etc.  This flag is provided
         so that ORM relationships can establish that the operator is a
         comparison operator when used in a custom join condition.

         Using the ``is_comparison`` parameter is superseded by using the
         :meth:`.Operators.bool_op` method instead;  this more succinct
         operator sets this parameter automatically, but also provides
         correct :pep:`484` typing support as the returned object will
         express a "boolean" datatype, i.e. ``BinaryExpression[bool]``.

        :param return_type: a :class:`.TypeEngine` class or object that will
          force the return type of an expression produced by this operator
          to be of that type.   By default, operators that specify
          :paramref:`.Operators.op.is_comparison` will resolve to
          :class:`.Boolean`, and those that do not will be of the same
          type as the left-hand operand.

        :param python_impl: an optional Python function that can evaluate
         two Python values in the same way as this operator works when
         run on the database server.  Useful for in-Python SQL expression
         evaluation functions, such as for ORM hybrid attributes, and the
         ORM "evaluator" used to match objects in a session after a multi-row
         update or delete.

         e.g.::

            >>> expr = column('x').op('+', python_impl=lambda a, b: a + b)('y')

         The operator for the above expression will also work for non-SQL
         left and right objects::

            >>> expr.operator(5, 10)
