Abstract
It is shown in this paper that first integrals of discrete equation of motion for the conservative holonomic systems can be determined explicitly by investigating the invariance properties of the discrete Lagrangian in event space. The result obtained is a discrete analogue of Noether's theorem in the calculus of variations. Two examples are given to illustrate the applications of the result.
