Context is all if you are doing science, for in science we study objects and events. If your interest is in doing pure mathematics or computer science that is fine, but it in of itself does not give physics. Feynman made some note of this. I found this little science fiction clip interesting along these lines. It is about a dormant computer system activating an attack sequence in a war that is long over. Note who in a sense "won the war." The machines activate algorithms with no context to reality.
