How does multiclassing two spellcasters work?

Multiclassing two spellcasters in D&D 5e combines your spell slots using a specific formula but keeps spells known/prepared separate by class, meaning you get more slots but learn fewer high-level spells, though you can use higher slots for lower-level spells; cantrips scale with total character level, while different casting abilities (Int, Wis, Cha) often require separate stats. You count full casters (Bard, Cleric, Druid, Sorc, Wizard) as one level, half-casters (Paladin, Ranger) as half, and one-third casters (Eldritch Knight, Arcane Trickster) as one-third, then sum them up on the multiclass spellcaster table for slots, but spells learned/prepared are always based on individual class levels.
