How many Warlock spells are in the D&D 5e SRD?

The SRD Warlock list has 64 spells across all levels. The SRD is the free subset of the rules, so the Player's Handbook list is longer.

Can a Warlock learn spells from another class's list?

Not by default. A few subclasses, feats and features grant access to spells outside the class list, and the bard's Magical Secrets is the broadest example. Otherwise you are limited to what appears on your own list.

How many spells can a Warlock have prepared or known?

That is set by the class table and your level, not by this list. Classes that prepare spells can change the selection after a long rest; classes that know spells swap them only at level up. Check the class progression for the exact numbers.

What the warlock list covers

64 spells from cantrip up to 9th-level, including 7 cantrips, and leaning on 10 enchantment and 9 necromancy, with 45 more across other groups. The school mix is the fastest way to read a class: it tells you whether the class solves problems by damage, by control, by information or by changing the situation, and therefore what the rest of the party still has to cover.

How this list plays

The warlock list is short, thematic and built around a completely different casting economy: very few slots that all recharge on a short rest. That makes the warlock the class most rewarded by frequent short rests and most punished by a single long day. Eldritch Blast plus invocations carries the damage, so the spell list is mostly for effects rather than attrition.

What to pick

Take spells worth casting at your highest slot level, since all slots are the same level — low-level utility spells are a poor use of a warlock slot unless they are rituals. Concentration control effects and spells that end an encounter are the best fit. Plan the day around short rests and tell your DM you are doing so.
