A large equilateral triangle is constructed by using toothpicks to create rows of small equilateral triangles. For example, in the figure we have 3 rows of small congruent equilateral triangles, with 5 small triangles in the base row. Total N number of toothpicks would be needed to construct a large equilateral triangle if the base row of the triangle consists of 2003 small equilateral triangles. Then find the sum of all digits of N.
