+Two helper functions are provided: `Enum.keys()` and `Enum.values()`, which resemble `Object.keys()`
+and `Object.values()` but provide strict typing in their return type:
+
+``` javascript
+const FileType = Enum({
+  PDF: "application/pdf",
+  Text: "text/plain",
+  JPEG: "image/jpeg",
+});
+type FileType = Enum<typeof FileType>;
+
+const keys = Enum.keys(FileType);
+// Inferred type: ("PDF" | "Text" | "JPEG")[]
+// Return value: ["PDF", "Text", "JPEG"] (not necessarily in that order)
+
+const values = Enum.values(FileType);
+// Inferred type: ("application/pdf" | "text/plain" | "image/jpeg")[]
+// Return value: ["application/pdf", "text/plain", "image/jpeg"] (not necessarily in that order)
+```
