Once you select a chart type, a simple spreadsheet (Excel) appears, laid out for inserting your data to generate a chart. It defaults to 3 columns of data (Series) and 4 rows (Category). If you need more or less, grab the corner of the blue outline around the data and stretch to the desired size.

When you have finished entering your data, hit the “X” to close the spreadsheet. This returns you to PowerPoint, where the chart can now be edited and formatted.

Once you’re back on the chart, you’ll see a new set of tabs (called “Chart Tools”) on the ribbon:

Design lets you change the chart type, switch rows and columns, edit the data (in Excel), and format the chart with various chart styles. At the very beginning is a key button called “Add Chart Element,” which lets you add additional components to a chart (such as axes labels).

Format provides graphical styles (such as fills, outlines, and effects) and text styles (WordArt styles). At the beginning is a dropdown which lets you see all the areas of a chart which can be formatted.
