  This is refreshing that Univ of Illinois will answer all p-adic
questions. I wish to know the representation of 1/2 in all of the
p-adics from 2-adic all the way up to 100-adics

1/2 in 2-adics is 
1/2 in 3-adics is
1/2 in 4-adics is
1/2 in 5-adics is
....
1/2 in 100-adics is

Thanks to uiuc in advance.
