        Parameters
        ----------
        name
            A String specifying the name of the ConstrainedSketchParameter object. No two parameters
            in the same ConstrainedSketch can have the same name.
        path
            A String specifying the ConstrainedSketchDimension object with which this parameter is
            associated.
        expression
            A String specifying the expression or value associated with the
            ConstrainedSketchParameter.
        previousParameter
            A String specifying the name of the previous ConstrainedSketchParameter, if it exists.
            The **previousParameter** argument implies an order among the parameters. No two
            parameters can reference the same parameter as the previous parameter.

        Returns
        -------
        ConstrainedSketchParameter
            A :py:class:`~abaqus.Sketcher.ConstrainedSketchParameter.ConstrainedSketchParameter.ConstrainedSketchParameter` object.
