The eternal question of “What are MVP and MVC and what is the difference” is asked again

And this time it is on StackOverflow:

What are MVP and MVC and what is the difference? - Stack Overflow

 

According to one of the posts: Here are the key differences between the patterns:

MVP Pattern

  • View is more loosely coupled to the model. The presenter is responsible for binding the model to the view.
  • Easier to unit test because interaction with the view is through an interface
  • Usually view to presenter map one to one. Complex views may have multi presenters.

MVC Pattern

  • Controller are based on behaviors and can be shared across views
  • Can be responsible for determining which view to display
