How to prevent the arrowhead anti-pattern

Question

I\'m a bit confused about how to best refactor my code into something more readable.

Consider this piece of code:

var foo = getfoo();
if(foo!=null)
{         


        

Answer 1

var foo =                        getFoo();
var bar = (foo == null) ? null : getBar(foo);
var moo = (bar == null) ? null : getMoo(bar);
var cow = (moo == null) ? null : getCow(moo);
if (cow != null) {
  ...
}
