    The author presents some basic formulae to calculate the degree of the \(n\)th iterate of the sequence of rational map. In the case where the maps are birational and have the space of initial values the calculation reduces to the calculation of the power of some matrix. The author also shows examples of calculation and simplifies the method by considering invariant sublattices. Moreover, this paper presents an application of the method developed here to discrete Painlevé equations and shows that for all of them the degrees grow at most in the order \(n^2\). The proof is based on the corresponding root systems.
