Count occurrences

I have two tables, a project table and a task table.  The project table contains 6 different projects. The task table contains any project that has a task. I would like to create a measure that calculates the total count of all tasks associated with each project name on the Project Table. Projects that do not have a task(currently not on the task table) should be assigned a 0 . For example Water works has two tasks because it has "task A" & "Task B" but Moon has 0 because it is not on the Task table. My desired outcome is at the bottom

 

Project Table

Project Name
Water works
Samsung
Intel
Moon  
Conway
Earth

 

TASK TABLE

Project NameTask
Water worksA
Water worksB
SamsungC
SamsungD
SamsungE
ConwayF

 

Desired Outcome

  • dw700d , One is you can join project and task table on project name and create a measure

     

    count(Task[Task])+0

     

    And display it with project name from project

     

    or create a new column in project

    tasks = countx(filter(Task, task[project name] = project[project name]) , Task[Task]) +0
