How to check missing days in datasets in R

Yet another way to do it using a specialized package, tsibble

library(dplyr)
library(lubridate)
library(tsibble)

df.xlsx1 <- data.frame(
    Year = c(1985, 1985, 1985, 1985, 1985),
    Month = c(1, 1, 1, 1, 1),
    Day = c(1, 2, 5, 6, 7),
    Value = c(10, 12, 11.8, 15, 21)
)

df.xlsx1 %>% 
    mutate(Date = make_date(year = Year, month = Month, day = Day)) %>% 
    as_tsibble(index = Date) %>% 
    fill_gaps() %>% 
    filter(is.na(Value)) %>% 
    select(Date)
#> # A tsibble: 2 x 1 [1D]
#>   Date      
#>   <date>    
#> 1 1985-01-03
#> 2 1985-01-04
