<p>Il metodo <code><strong>keys()</strong></code> ritorna un nuovo oggetto <code><strong>Array Iterator</strong></code> contenente le chiavi di ogni indice dell'array.</p>

<pre class="brush: js">var arr = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
var iterator = arr.keys();

console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: 0, done: false }
console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: 1, done: false }
console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: 2, done: false }
console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: undefined, done: true }
</pre>
