formula field in LEAD object

I have a requirement to create a formula field as follows:

The formula field should be created on the LEAD object.

The formula field should evaluate the following 5 fields: Email, Phone, Company, Title, and Industry and return 0 if blank and 1 if not blank.
The formula should then add all the values together to return a total value.

Please let me know how to do this?

thanks
