So this is what you state:
- "inheritance" is a "practice problem"
- "inheritance" is "pretty complicated"
- you want a rough outline of "inheritance"
Is that correct ?
Pleeeeese don't split the question between the subject line and the OP body.
Inheritance is the process by which an offspring cell or organism acquires or becomes predisposed to characteristics of its parent cell or organism.
Through inheritance, variations exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause a species to evolve.
Mechanisms of inheritance:
- Genetic or Mendelian inheritance results from DNA replication and cell division.
- Epigenetic inheritance results from, among other things, DNA modifications such as gene silencing.
- non-Mendelian inheritance includes inheritance based on cytoplasmic substituents, including mitochondria and chloroplasts.
Hope it helps

You might want to explain your problem. As so far all you have said is:
a) You have a problem
As you can see, that does not help us help you answer your problem.
If you simply don't understand [url=http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/concepts/index.html]Object-Oriented Programming Concepts[/url] such as inheritance, it might be worth reading the java tutorial, [url=http://www.google.co.uk/search?hs=52L&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-GB%3Aofficial&q=java+inheritance+tutorial&btnG=Search&meta=]searching [/url] the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inheritance_%28computer_science%29]web[/url].
