Expression contexts are used to encapsulate the parameters around which a QgsExpression should be evaluated.
QgsExpressions can then utilize the information stored within a context to contextualise their evaluated result. A QgsExpressionContext consists of a stack of QgsExpressionContextScope objects, where scopes added later to the stack will override conflicting variables and functions from scopes lower in the stack.
See QgsExpressionContextUtils for helper methods for working with QgsExpressionContext objects.
