Pretty much the title. I can do this with `goal` via `$goal app info --app-id $local_app_id | awk 'NR==2 {print $3}'` but neither the `getApplicationByID` method on the `AlgodV2` class nor the `lookupApplications` method on the `Indexer` class return an application address.

The application address can be derived just from the application ID.

In Go, see [How do i get Application Account Address through Golang Algorand SDK? - #2 by fabrice](https://forum.algorand.co/t/how-do-i-get-application-account-address-through-golang-algorand-sdk/4572/2)  
Other SDK have similar functions.
