Is MVC and MVP supervising controller the same? [duplicate]

What are MVP and MVC and what is the difference?

I have read the following description for the MVC in a website:

In this case of MVC the Controller simply builds the Model and passes it off to the View for rendering. No stateful interplay between the View and Controller, just a “hey, here’s the Model, see you later” from the Controller to the View.

I have read the following about the MVP - Supervising controller

Supervising Controller: The Presenter handles user gestures. The View binds to the Model directly through data binding. In this case it's the Presenter's job to pass off the Model to the View so that it can bind to it. The Presenter will also contain logic for gestures like pressing a button, navigation, etc.

From the description above i feel like the underlying logic behind MVC and MVP - supervising controller are same.

Is my understanding correct?

Thanks in advance
