Am trying to call a JS script from a function library in another script.
Eg. iceCreams.Js contains --->
iceCream(iceCreams){
var profit = .54
var Total = iceCreams * profits
return Total;
}
register.js contains -->
dailyTotals(wages, iceCreams){
var total = iceCream(iceCreams);
var profit = iceCreaps - wages
return wages;
}
Any help pointing me in the right direction?!

Make sure your page loads the iceCream.Js before the register.js:
<html>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="iceCream.Js"></script>
<!-- now you can use functions in iceCream.Js in your register.js -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="register.js"></script>
....
</html>

Running the javascripts is done in client side and after rendering the full html. So, you have to add script tag for the library javascripts before consuming ones. Just add script tag for the library before the one for register:
<script type="text/javascript" src="iceCreams.Js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="register.js"></script>

Both script files must be referenced on the page they are used.
Additionally, to get IntelliSense in Visual Studio to work within the script, add the following line to the top of register.js:
/// <reference path="iceCreams.js" />

lang-js
functionkeywords btw.iceCreapsshould probably beiceCreams. (Also recommend not relying on semicolon insertion; always include the semicolons required.)
