Before revision:  In this work, we develop theory justifying the use of M-estimation (Van der Vaart, 2000), traditionally used with i.i.d data, to provide inferential methods for a large class of estimators -- including least squares and maximum likelihood estimators -- but now with data collected with  (contextual) bandit algorithms.
