I wrote a Groovy script. I'm finally in the habit of using each() instead of a for loop and grep() instead of an if statement (for filtering.)

I'm not sure what to do with this if statement through. This code is supposed to loop through all the p's and print out objects that don't have any q's of the right type with a value set. I had to use a helper variable because I couldn't figure out how to do this the Groovy way. Ideas?

I made one slight adaptation. Greg's example printed out a bunch of lines with null on them. I changed it to:
