Answer 1

You should use a service instead to avoid muddying up the controllers with code that calls functions in other controllers. If you're sharing functions, just define them in a service and inject that service where needed.

angular.module('myApp', [])
  .factory('myService', function() {
    return {
      sharedFunction: function (foo, bar) {
        return foo + bar;
      }
    }
};

Answer 2

You can get scope:

angular.element(document.getElementById('yourControllerElementID')).scope().get()

But yourControllerElementID should be ElementID not ControlerName!

For example:

<div id="elemID" ng-controller="YourController"></div>

So elemId is id of element with YourController.
