Description
**Description of the false positive**
LGTM gives an alert about unreachable code, but this code *is* reachable and I can easily trigger the print statement on the line LGTM says is unreachable, by running it as
```sh
touch a.c
submit -u https://team:team@www.domjudge.org/demoweb -c nwerc18 a.c
```
I don't have much experience with Python and this code was written by another developer in our project. My only hunch is that the global `num_warnings` variable is imported in the local scope in `warn_user()` and maybe this is not detected properly?
**URL to the alert on the project page on LGTM.com**
